IMPROVED OPTICAL DIFFUSER

摘要

An improved optical diffuser for use in a multi-component display (MCD), and also to a method of manufacturing the same, is disclosed. Embodiments provide an optical diffuser film which may be manufactured with fewer manual operations, at a lower cost, and in larger volume than conventional optical diffusers. The optical diffuser film may include a flexible polymer substrate coupled to an optical diffuser material with a plurality of features for diffusing light. The optical diffuser film may be store, transported, or otherwise handled more easily and with less damage than conventional optical diffusers. Additionally, the optical diffuser film may be coupled to a rigid substrate to reduce distortion of the optical diffuser, thereby providing improved optical performance.
