Light emitting diode structure having photonic crystals

A light emitting diode (LED) structure includes a substrate with a surface and cylindrical photonic crystals, a first type doping semiconductor layer, a first electrode, a light emitting layer, a second type doping semiconductor layer and a second electrode. The first type doping semiconductor layer is formed on the substrate to cover the photonic crystals. The light emitting layer, the second type doping semiconductor layer and the second electrode are sequentially formed on a portion of the first type doping semiconductor layer. The first electrode is formed on the other portion of the first type doping semiconductor layer without being covered by the light emitting layer. Because the substrate with photonic crystals can improve the epitaxial quality of the first type doping semiconductor layer and increase the energy of the light forwardly emitting out of the LED, the light emitting efficiency of the LED is effectively enhanced.

Reflector, light source device and projection display apparatus

A concave mirror substance 1 constituting a reflector is composed of a base material having a high thermal conductivity such as aluminum etc. An infrared-to-heat converting layer 2 is film-formed by anodizing the substrate formed of aluminum etc., so as to absorb light in a wavelength range which passes through a visible light reflecting layer 4 and convert it into heat. A gloss-forming buffer layer 3 is film-formed by calcining Si resin or polyimide resin over the inner side (the light source-side surface) of infrared-to-heat converting layer 2 at high temperatures, so as to buffer the two layers in a manner that does not allow infrared-to-heat converting layer 2 and visible light reflecting layer 4 to be in direct contact with each other, and so as to reduce the influence of projections and indentations present on infrared-to-heat converting layer 2 and smoothen the light source-side surface of visible light reflecting layer 4. In this way, it is possible to suppress performance degradation by efficient discharge of heat by converting light into heat and by alleviating thermal stress and strain due to the difference in expansion coefficient between components, and it is also possible to achieve reduction in cost, miniaturization and weight reduction.

Surface light source device and liquid crystal display

A surface light source device has a narrowed visual field and increased brightness. The surface light source device can be applied to a liquid crystal display. The back side of a fluorescent lamp is covered with silver foil. Light emitted from the lamp enters a wedge-shaped light guide plate through its incident surface. The light guide plate is designed so that directional light exits from the guide plate. When the light is guided toward a thin-walled end surface through the light guide plate, the light is scattered, reflected, and undergoes other action. Collimated light flux gradually exits from the exiting surface. The light flux passes through two prism sheets successively. As a result, the direction of propagation of the light is restricted in two dimensions. The light flux of increased brightness is directed to the liquid crystal panel. V-shaped channels formed in the prism faces of the two prism sheets PS1, PS2 are arrayed in two mutually perpendicular directions while facing outward. The prismatic vertical angles of the two sheets PS1, PS2 have various desirable combinations of values. For example, where the first sheet PS1 is disposed vertical to the lamp, the vertical angles of the two sheets PS1, PS2 are preferably 90° and 70°, respectively.
