We have propesed a new bri 富 hter LCD backlight using highly scattering optieal − transmission ( HSOT ) poly 皿 er . This polymer material consists of spec 主 fied microscopic heterogeneous s嘸 ctures inside the polyl 鵬 r . The highイ)rder scattering phenomenon in the HSOT polymer was exactiy investigated by Monte Carlo sirnulation based on Mie scattering theory . We obtahled a good agreement between the calcUlated and the experimental results . The scatter 血 g property inside the HSOT polymer can
