A photo-luminescent (PL) liquid crystal display (LCD) including a blue dichroic mirror layer disposed under a light emitting layer is provided. Visible light generated from the light emitting layer is mostly reflected to the front side of the PL LCD, thereby increasing the light utilization efficiency thereof. A blue PL quantum dot layer is formed in blue light regions, thereby improving a narrow viewing angle and an orientation in blue pixels. An ultraviolet (UV) filter blocking UV light in the ambient light is formed to protect the light emitting layer from the excitation caused by external light, thereby preventing degradation of contrast caused by an undesired light emission.

A solid-state imaging device includes a plurality of photoelectric conversion elements provided at a surface portion of a semiconductor substrate by being arranged in a form of a two-dimensional array, spectral elements each provided on a number of the photoelectric conversion elements which are arranged linearly, a trapezoidal opening which is longitudinally elongated in a direction from a base toward an upper side thereof and which introduces incident light to the number of the photoelectric conversion elements being provided in each of the spectral elements, so as to cause spectral separation in the longitudinal direction by interference between the incident light and light reflected on inner side surfaces of the trapezoidal opening and a signal reading unit for reading a signal which is detected by each of the number of the photoelectric conversion elements arranged in the longitudinal direction by receiving the light incident through the trapezoidal opening.

To provide a close contact type sensor promoting a light utilizing efficiency, there is provided a close contact type sensor featured in that in a close contact type sensor having a sensor circuit portion and an irradiation window portion, a plurality of the irradiation windows are arranged and positions and sizes of the irradiation windows are matched to positions and sizes of opening portions of LCD utilized as a light source.

An optical lens for use in a vehicle light can be compact and less expensive and has an outer appearance that has a high commercial value and achieves a high light utilization efficiency. The optical lens can include a light incident surface that receives light from a light source and a light output surface to output the light. The light incident surface can include a center light incident surface formed at its center and being convex toward the light source with a plurality of prisms with a polygonal shape formed radially from its center to its periphery. The light output surface can include a toroidal surface corresponding to the center light incident surface and a surrounding light output surface corresponding to the prisms.

A light guide plate includes a light emitting surface, a bottom surface, a light incident surface and many optical units. Each of the optical units includes a first optical microstructure and a second optical microstructure. The second optical microstructure has a first surface and a second surface. A first cross-sectional line obtained by cutting the first surface along a direction perpendicular to the light incident surface and the light emitting surface is an inclined straight line. A first end of a second cross-sectional line obtained by cutting the second surface along the direction perpendicular to the light incident surface and the light emitting surface and a second end of the second cross-sectional line are connected to form a reference straight line. An acute angle included by the reference straight line and a normal line of the light emitting surface is α. The acute angle α satisfies an equation:[90⁢°+sin-1⁡(sin⁢⁢ψn)]2-15⁢°≤α≤[90⁢°+sin-1⁡(sin⁢⁢ψn)]2+15⁢°
