Title: The Innovations of Tokutaro Komatsu
Introduction
Tokutaro Komatsu is a notable inventor based in Abiko, Japan. He has made significant contributions to the field of optical technology, particularly through his innovative patents. His work focuses on enhancing light transmissivity and condensation abilities in optical devices.
Latest Patents
One of Tokutaro Komatsu's key patents is for a diffraction type light-condensing film and a planar light source device that utilizes this film. This invention provides an easy-to-handle, thin diffraction type light-condensing film that exhibits high light transmissivity and condensation ability. The technology employs a hologram optical element that uses diffraction and interference phenomena based on the wave properties of light, replacing the conventional prism sheet that relies on refraction. As a result, the diffraction type light-condensing film and the planar light source device achieve high light transmissivity while maintaining a thin profile. The film also minimizes the dependence of bending angle on wavelength, allowing light entering from an oblique direction to be bent vertically, with spectral separation of white light suppressed. This innovation realizes high light-condensation that is not possible with traditional optical elements by reducing angular variation in emitted light relative to incident light.
