Film Having Transmissive And Reflective Properties

View page
US Patent:
6473220, Oct 29, 2002
Filed:
Jan 26, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/491450
Inventors:
Richard W. Clikeman - Austin TX
Neil D. Lubart - Austin TX
Charles Ronald Mayfield - Cedar Park TX
Assignee:
Trivium Technologies, Inc. - Cleveland OH
International Classification:
G02F 103
US Classification:
359247, 359245
Abstract:
A film which simultaneously maximizes light reflectivity from one side of the film while maximizing light transmissivity from the opposite side of the film. This is achieved by configuring the film with distinct regions of transparency and reflectivity where the extended boundary of the reflective region is shaped into a light funnel/pipe and where periodically placed discrete and/or extended/continuous shapes are created (such as extended triangular indentations, or discrete shapes such as a cone, a pyramid, or any polyhedron). The reflective region is composed of mirror-like material such as aluminum or silver, but may be a composite paste, a composite material, or multiple materials with different refractive indices or reflective qualities. In some embodiments, the reflective material is embedded in the transparent material such that the base of each shape is approximately parallel to and coincident with, or slightly recessed from the surface of the transparent material. In other embodiments, the reflective material is embedded in the transparent material such that the base of each shape is set at an angle to the surface of the transparent material.

Neil D. Lubart - Austin TX
Charles Ronald Mayfield - Cedar Park TX
Assignee:
Trivium Technologies, Inc. - Cleveland OH
International Classification:
G02F 103
US Classification:
359247, 359245
Abstract:
A device which simultaneously maximizes light reflectivity from one side of the device while maximizing light transmissivity from the opposite side of the device. The device is configured with distinct regions of transparency and reflectivity including a plurality of reflective structures. The structures are generally smaller towards a light transmitting side of the device and larger towards a light reflective side of the device.

Light Collimating Device

View page
US Patent:
7345824, Mar 18, 2008
Filed:
Aug 1, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/194360
Inventors:
Neil D. Lubart - Austin TX, US
Timothy J. Wojciechowski - Westlake OH, US
Thomas E. Lash - Shaker Heights OH, US
Assignee:
Trivium Technologies, Inc. - Cleveland OH
International Classification:
G02B 27/30
G02B 13/18
G02B 3/02
US Classification:
359641, 359708, 349 62
Abstract:
A collimating device and a transflector for use in a system having a backlight is disclosed herein. In one embodiment of the application, the collimating device and the transflector each include an immersing layer, a reflecting layer, and an optical element layer formed from a plurality of three-dimensional, optical elements. Each optical element is tapered such that a small area end has a horizontal plane cross-sectional area that is less than that of a wide area end. The optical elements of the collimating device are tapered towards the backlight and the optical elements of the transflector are tapered away from the backlight. The reflecting layer has apertures which correspond to the position and shape of the light input ends of the optical elements.

US Patent:
7428367, Sep 23, 2008
Filed:
Oct 17, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/688785
Inventors:
Neil D. Lubart - Austin TX, US
Timothy J. Wojciechowski - Westlake OH, US
Assignee:
Brilliant Film LLC - Cleveland OH
International Classification:
G02B 6/10
G02B 27/30
US Classification:
385146, 385 36, 359641
Abstract:
A light control device is disclosed that includes a two film construction, each film having a plurality of light reflecting regions. For example, the light absorbing elements can be a series of grooves or column-like indentations in the films that are filled or coated with a light reflecting material having a lower index of refraction than that of the films. The two films can be adjacently disposed so that their respective light reflecting regions form a plurality of light reflecting elements that extend along the thickness direction of the device.

US Patent:
7518801, Apr 14, 2009
Filed:
Jun 16, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/454521
Inventors:
Donald J. Davis - Conneaut Lake PA, US
Neil D. Lubart - Austin TX, US
Timothy J. Wojciechowski - Westlake OH, US
Thomas E. Lash - Shaker Heights OH, US
Karen Spilizewski - Euclid OH, US
Assignee:
Brillant Film LLC - Cleveland OH
International Classification:
G02B 27/10
G02B 27/30
US Classification:
359620, 359641
Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a collimating device is disclosed herein. In one embodiment the method includes a step of constructing a reflective layer. After the reflective layer is constructed, a step of constructing an optical element layer follows, including a step of forming an array of microstructures in the optical element layer. Next, the array of microstructures is abutted against the reflective layer. Heat and pressure are then applied to the optical element layer to puncture the reflective layer and penetrate a predetermined distance through the reflective layer. Sub-assemblies are also defined, wherein optical elements are coupled to prevent light loss.
