Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present application relates to a light conversion device, a backlight unit and a display apparatus.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A light conversion device comprising: a light source; and a light conversion film provided on one surface of the light source, wherein the light conversion film includes a wavelength converting material converting a wavelength of light emitted from the light source and a light transmitting polymer resin in which the wavelength converting material is dispersed, and the light conversion film is formed with two or more layers and each of the layers independently has a different maximum light emission wavelength, and wherein the light conversion film has at least a first light conversion film having a maximum light emission wavelength from 500 nm to 550 nm and a second light conversion film having a maximum light emission wavelength from 600 nm to 660 nm. 2. The light conversion device of claim 1 , wherein the light source is a blue light emitting diode emitting blue light. 3. The light conversion device of claim 1 , wherein the light conversion film is excited by light emitted from the light source. 4. The light conversion device of claim 1 , wherein the wavelength converting material includes at least one of an organic fluorescent dye and an organic fluorescent pigment derived from an organic fluorescent dye, and a wavelength of light converted by the wavelength converting material has a full width at half maximum (FWHM) of 60 nm or less. 5. A light conversion device of claim 1 , further comprising a transparent substrate or a light extraction plate on a surface of the light conversion film, such that the transparent substrate or the light extraction plate is between the light conversion film and the light source. 6. The light conversion device of claim 5 , further comprising the transparent substrate and the light extraction plate consecutively on a surface of the light conversion film facing the light source. 7. The light conversion device of claim 5 , wherein the light conversion film further includes light diffusion particles. 8. A backlight unit comprising the light conversion device of claim 5 . 9. A display apparatus comprising the backlight unit of claim 8 .
