We propose wedge type light guide plate (LGP) adopting twin inclined cylindrical surfaces (TICS) at the incident part of a LGP. It has higher optical efficiency than conventional wedge type LGP. In dimension of LGP which the thickness of incident part is 1.5 mm and that of luminance part is 0.7 mm, the optical efficiency of wedge type LGP adopting...

... angle θ is different from normal angle which is defined by the horizontal axis. It becomes the cylindrical coordinate by adding z-axis to two-dimensional polar coordinates. As shown in Fig. 3, we considered a small displacement from P to Q. Infinitesimal displacements Δx, Δy are expressed by Δr, Δθ ...
