Abstract
A double-sided emissive LCD module includes a double-sided illumination plate, a first LCD panel disposed at the upper surface of the double-sided illumination plate, a second LCD panel disposed at the lower surface of the plate. The double-sided illumination plate includes a light source, a light guide plate, and a transflector. The transflector reflects a part of the light emitted from the lower surface of the light guide plate to the first LCD panel, while transmits the rest of the light to the second LCD panel.
