Development of single-sided structure collimation film for direct-lit collimated backlight module.

In this paper, we proposed an optical structure to enhance the collimation and uniformity of 405 nm LED backlight modules. The structure is called a single-sided structure collimation film (SSSCF), which consists of a lenticular lens array, slit apertures, and a highly reflective coating surface. A lenticular lens array with slit apertures converts the angle of diffusive incident light into collimated light.

Trivalent Phosphine-Catalyzed [4+1] Spiro-annulation Reaction Using Allenyl Imide and Methylene Cyclocompounds.

The trivalent phosphine-catalyzed [4+1] spiro-annulation reaction of allenyl imide and activated methylene cyclocompounds has been developed for the construction of various spiro-2-cyclopenten-1-ones. Oxindoles, 3-isochromanones, and 2-indanones are selected as 1C synthons to capture the in situ-generated bis-electrophilic α,β-unsaturated ketenyl phosphonium intermediate, affording the corresponding monospiro- and bispiro-cyclopentenones in good to excellent yields (≤91%) under mild conditions. The primary attempt at asymmetric catalysis using monophosphine ()-SITCP provides promising enantioselectivity (45% ee).
