Description

  • This patent is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 12/667,526 entitled “MULTICOLORED LINEAR LIGHT SOURCE” filed on Jul. 9, 2010, which in turn claims priority from provisional patent number 1284/MUM/2007 titled “Multicolored Linear Light Source” filed on the 5th of Jul. 2007 in Mumbai, India.
    • TECHNICAL FIELD
  • The present invention relates to a source of illumination. Particularly, the invention relates to an apparatus and method for a source of illumination producing multiple colors.
    • BACKGROUND ART
  • A source of illumination is used for lighting purposes. A linear light source may be used as a source of illumination to provide light in the backlights of display systems. In color transmissive display systems such as liquid crystal displays, the backlights are designed to provide light into the liquid crystal sheet. The light emanating from the liquid crystal sheet passes through a sheet of color filters. The color filter sheet allows only light of a particular color to pass through and blocks light of other colors. So, a significant proportion of light emanating from the backlight is blocked by the color filter sheet, reducing the efficiency of the display.
  • There exists prior art wherein a color display is lighted by column sources of light, each column carrying light of a particular color. A multicolored light source is needed so that light of various colors is coupled into the various columns. The multicolored linear light sources known in art are cumbersome and costly to produce. Thus, there is a need for a simple and cheaper multicolored linear light source.
  • A photoluminescent tube (usually known as a fluorescent tube) is used as a source of illumination for backlights in displays. A photoluminescent tube is made of a gas discharge tube coated with photoluminescent material on the surface of the tube. When a high voltage is applied across the tube, ionization of the gases occurs. These ions emit photons which hit the photoluminescent materials on the surface. The photoluminescent materials on the surface emit light of a particular spectrum. Photoluminescent material is any material which absorbs photons and hence emits photons. Photoluminescent materials include fluorescent materials, phosphorescent materials and scintillators.
    • SUMMARY
  • A multicolored linear light source is disclosed. In an embodiment, the multicolored linear light source comprises a linear light source emanating light of a first spectrum, and regions of photoluminescent material. The light of the first spectrum interacts with regions of photoluminescent material to give light of a different spectrum. The composition of different regions of photoluminescent material is different, providing light of different spectra in different regions.

In an embodiment, the multicolored linear light source comprises a linear light source emanating light of a first spectrum, and regions of photoluminescent material. The light of the first spectrum interacts with regions of photoluminescent material to give light of a different spectrum. The composition of different regions of photoluminescent material is different, providing light of different spectra in different regions.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates a block diagram of a multicolored linear light source 199, according to an embodiment. The inner surface of a gas discharge tube 100 is coated with different photoluminescent materials as shown in the figure to give a multicolored photoluminescent tube. The photoluminescent materials 102, 104, 106 are such that, light emanating from them are of different spectra. In an embodiment, the gas discharge tube is a cold cathode lamp. In another embodiment, the gas discharge tube is a hot cathode lamp.
  • FIG. 2 illustrates a block diagram of a multicolored linear light source 299 comprising a mirror, according to an embodiment. The outer surface of the photoluminescent tube 200 is partially covered by a mirror 208. In a region where the mirror is not present, photoluminescent material 202, 204 and 206 are provided. Light produced by low pressure gas in the photoluminescent tube falling on the mirror 208 gets reflected once or more times, till it falls on one of the photoluminescent materials 202, 204 or 206. Light falling on the photoluminescent materials 202, 204 and 206 causes light emanation. The photoluminescent materials 202, 204, 206 are such that, light emanating from them are of different spectra.
  • FIG. 3 illustrates a cutaway diagram of a multicolored linear light source 399 comprising a light guide and diffuser, according to an embodiment. Light source 310 emanates light into light guide 300. The light traveling through light guide 300 is scattered by diffuser particles 312 present inside it.
