description | An improved backlight assembly comprising an array of apertures in close proximity to a light source, an array of tapered optical elements that have a light input surface area smaller than the light output surface area. Light rays pass through the apertures and are directed to the optical elements which transmit the light rays via internal reflection to provide a partially collimated light source. The light rays then pass through an array of microlenses that transmit the light rays via refraction and provide a substantially more collimated light source for the display elements of a display. The backlight assembly is advantageously used as a backlighting means for electro-optical displays, especially those designed for military and avionics applications. |
