Abstract

A backlight includes a lightguide having a light emission surface, a first light input surface, a second light input surface opposing the first light input surface, and a lightguide thickness. A plurality of antireflection features are on or in the first light input surface and second light input surface. Each antireflection feature has a base length value and a height value that are less than the light guide thickness. A right eye image solid state light source is positioned to provide light into the first light input surface and a left eye image solid state light source is positioned to provide light into the second light input surface.
