| 20090273836 | OPTICAL FILM COMPRISING BIREFRINGENT NAPHTHALATE COPOLYESTER HAVING BRANCHED OR CYCLIC C4-C10 ALKYL UNITS - The present invention relates to multilayer optical films and birefringent copolyester films. The birefringent copolyester optical layer or birefringent copolyester film comprises a major amount of naphthalate units, ethylene units, and a minor amount of branched or cyclic C4 to C10 alkyl units. Also described are certain copolyester polymeric materials further comprising subunits of a phthalate ionomer such as dimethyl sulfosodium isophthtalate ionomer. | 11-05-2009 |
| 20100156953 | THIN HOLLOW BACKLIGHTS WITH BENEFICIAL DESIGN CHARACTERISTICS - A backlight unit ( | 06-24-2010 |
| 20100165660 | BACKLIGHT AND DISPLAY SYSTEM USING SAME - A backlight that includes a front reflector and a back reflector that form a hollow light recycling cavity including an output surface is disclosed. The backlight further includes one or more light sources disposed to emit light into the light recycling cavity. The front reflector includes an on-axis average reflectivity of at least 90% for visible light polarized in a first plane, and an on-axis average reflectivity of at least 25% but less than 90% for visible light polarized in a second plane perpendicular to the first plane. | 07-01-2010 |
| 20100219540 | METHOD OF MAKING OPTICAL BODY HAVING POLYACRYLATE SKIN LAYER - A method of making an optical body an optical body is disclosed. The method includes coextruding a first skin layer and a first strippable skin layer on a first side of an optical layer. The first skin layer is disposed between the optical layer and the first strippable skin layer. The first skin layer includes a mixture of a polyacrylate and a second polymer which may or may not be miscible in the polyacrylate. The second polymer may be an anti-static polymer. | 09-02-2010 |
| 20100221490 | OPTICAL BODY HAVING POLYACRYLATE SKIN LAYER - A multilayer optical body is disclosed. The optical body includes an optical film including polyester, a first skin layer is disposed on at least one side of the polyester optical film, and a strippable skin layer is disposed on the first skin layer. The first skin layer includes a mixture of a polyacrylate and a second polymer. Methods of making such optical bodies are also disclosed. | 09-02-2010 |
| 20100221491 | OPTICAL BODY HAVING POLYACRYLATE SKIN LAYER - A multilayer optical body is disclosed. The optical body includes an optical film including polyester, a first skin layer is disposed on at least one side of the polyester optical film, and a strippable skin layer is disposed on the first skin layer. The first skin layer includes a mixture of a polyacrylate and an anti-static polymer. Methods of making such optical bodies are also disclosed. | 09-02-2010 |
| 20110102891 | LOW LAYER COUNT REFLECTIVE POLARIZER WITH OPTIMIZED GAIN - Multilayer reflecting polarizing films are disclosed having increased in-plane refractive index differences between adjacent microlayers along both the pass and block axis, and having negative refractive index differences between adjacent microlayers along the thickness or z-axis. Major front and back surfaces of the film exposed to air provide a Fresnel reflectivity component to the pass axis reflectivity, and the microlayers provide a microlayer component to the pass axis reflectivity, such microlayer component preferably having a reflectivity of p-polarized light that increases with incidence angle faster than the Fresnel reflectivity component decreases so as to substantially avoid off-axis gain peaks for p-polarized light. The films preferably utilize a relatively small total number of microlayers, arranged in a single coherent stack with monotonic optical repeat unit thickness profile, and at least some microlayers preferably include polyethylene naphthalate or a copolymer thereof. | 05-05-2011 |
