<p>An edge-lit waveguide-based backlighting apparatus for high-brightness microdisplays. In one example, the backlighting apparatus includes a waveguide having substantially parallel top and bottom surfaces and a side surface substantially perpendicular to the top and bottom surfaces and extending between the top and bottom surfaces along a periphery of the waveguide, a specularly reflective film disposed on and at least partially covering the bottom and side surfaces of the waveguide, and at least one light source disposed on the side surface and configured to emit light into the waveguide in a direction of a length of the waveguide, the waveguide being configured to direct the light out of an output region of the top surface of the waveguide.</p> |
