Abstract

See full text

A display such as a liquid crystal display may have an array of pixels that is illuminated using backlight illumination from a backlight. The backlight may have a light guide plate that distributes light from light-emitting diodes across the display. The light-emitting diodes may be overlapped by the light guide plate and may emit light into portions of the light guide plate that have ramped profiles. Light-emitting diodes for the backlight may have multiple light-emitting diode dies mounted on common package substrates. Reflective walls may be formed between the light-emitting diode dies on a substrate. Phosphor may cover the dies. The light-emitting diodes may contain four light-emitting diode dies that emit light in four different directions. Two or more of the dies may emit light of different colors. Light may be emitted into the corners of rectangular light distribution regions of a light guide plate.
