Abstract
In one embodiment, a display comprises a light source positioned to emit light into a 0.5 millimeter thick lightguide with light extraction features, a cladding layer optically coupled to a core layer of the lightguide on a first side, a light turning film optically coupled to the cladding layer on an opposite side, the light turning film comprising a light turning features that redirect frustrated totally internally reflected light from the core layer into a first portion of light with a first peak luminous intensity at a first angle and a second portion of light with a second peak luminous intensity at a second angle different from the first angle and on an opposite side of the thickness direction, and the light diffusely reflecting from a reflective spatial light modulator has a peak luminous intensity within degrees from a direction normal to a surface of the display.
