Backlight unit with phosphors and quantum dots
Provided is a backlight unit including a light source, an encapsulation layer, and a green quantum dot film. The light source emits a blue light. The encapsulation layer encapsulates the light source. The encapsulation layer includes red phosphors and yellow phosphors. The green quantum dot film is disposed above the light source and the encapsulation layer. The blue light is transmitted through the encapsulation layer and the green quantum dot film to generate a white light. A display device including the said backlight unit is also provided.
1. A backlight unit, comprising:
a plurality of light source packages, wherein each light source package comprises:
a light source emitting a blue light; and
an encapsulation layer encapsulating the light source, wherein the encapsulation layer comprises red phosphors and yellow phosphors;
a green quantum dot film disposed above the plurality of light source packages, wherein the blue light is transmitted through the encapsulation layer and the green quantum dot film to generate a white light, wherein the green quantum dot film comprises a substrate sheet having no gas barrier layer therein; and
a light guide plate disposed between the plurality of light source packages and the green quantum dot film.
2. The backlight unit according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a reflective layer disposed on a back surface of the light guide plate to reflect the blue light emitted from the light sources into the green quantum dot film.
3. The backlight unit according to claim 1 , wherein the yellow phosphors are Y 3 Al 5 O 12 :Ce 3+ (YAG).
4. The backlight unit according to claim 1 , wherein the red phosphors are K 2 SiF 6 :Mn 4+ (KSF).
5. The backlight unit according to claim 1 , wherein the green quantum dot film comprises a green quantum dot layer.
6. The backlight unit according to claim 5 , wherein the substrate sheet is disposed above, below, or both above and below the green quantum dot layer.
7. The backlight unit according to claim 5 , wherein the green quantum dot layer comprises a resin material and a plurality of green quantum dots are dispersed and embedded in the resin material, wherein the resin material comprises acrylate resin, epoxy resin, or silicone.
8. The backlight unit according to claim 5 , wherein each green quantum dot in the green quantum dot layer has a core, a core-shell, a core-multi shell, a core-alloy layer-shell, a core-alloy layer-multi shell, or a combination thereof.
