<p>In an electroluminescent lamp (14) having a phosphor layer (60) disposed between corresponding lamp electrodes (46, 112) adapted to apply an excitation potential to cause the phosphor layer to emit light, a front lamp electrode (46) which, in addition to being light transmissive to radiation from the phosphor layer, consists of a thin layer of light-transmissive binder (48) containing a distribution of discrete particles (50) that are characteristically light-reflective and electrically conductive. The electrode particles provide aggregate diffuse outward reflectance sufficient to serve as a reflector behind an LCD display for ambient light that falls upon the LCD display to illuminate the display (12) under light ambient conditions. Furthermore, the particles in the electrode layer are adapted to contribute to electrical continuity through the layer sufficient to apply excitation to the phosphor layer, and the electrode layer particles have sufficient spaces (51) between them to provide escape-paths for light from the excited phosphor layer to back-illuminate the LCD display under dark ambient conditions.</p> |
