Thermal Spreading Performance of Copper-Graphite Film Attached on BLM-Reflector
In LEDs Backlight Module, reflector who made by metal and contacts to LEDs possesses higher thermal conductivity. The reflector was expected to dissipate the heat from the LEDs, however, it is not good enough to decrease the LEDs temperature rise. In this study, a copper-graphite film with thickness of 82.5 μm was attached to the back of reflector to increase the heat dissipation. The temperatures along the x, y, and z direction were measured to evaluate the thermal spread performance. Results showed that a 19% temperature rise decrease was found for LEDs and a half temperature increase was also measured along the LEDs bar direction. In addition to that a higher thermal conductivity could spread the heat to the remote end resulting in temperature increasing to enhance the heat dissipation by way of reflector.
