Light guide plate with light entrance structure and manufacture method for manufacturing the same
A light guide plate and manufacture methods thereof are provided. The light guide plate includes a plate body, an optical adhesive layer, and a light entrance structure layer. The plate body has a light exit surface and a light entrance surface. The light entrance surface is connected to a side of the light exit surface and intersects the light exit surface with an angle. The optical adhesive layer is attached on the light entrance surface while the light entrance structure layer is attached to the optical adhesive layer. The light entrance structure layer includes a substrate and a light-cured or thermal-cured structure. The light-cured or thermal-cured structure is made of light or thermal curable material and firmly formed on a structured surface of the substrate through a light or thermal curing process.
1. A method of manufacturing a light guide plate, comprising:
distributing a light or thermal curable material on a substrate;
shaping and curing the light or thermal curable material into a light-cured or thermal-cured structure;
disposing an optical adhesive layer on one side of the substrate opposite to the light-cured or thermal-cured structure;
cutting the substrate along with the light-cured or thermal-cured structure to form a light entrance structure layer;
attaching the optical adhesive layer to a light entrance surface of a plate body to attach the optical entrance structure layer to the light entrance surface, wherein the light entrance surface is connected to one side of a light exit surface of the plate body with an angle,
the step of disposing the optical adhesive layer further comprises attaching a protective film to a surface of the optical adhesive layer opposite to the substrate, and
the step of attaching the optical adhesive layer to the plate body further comprises removing the protective film.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the step of cutting the substrate comprises simultaneously cutting the substrate and the optical adhesive layer.
