2006 LCD Brightness Enhancement Film in an Era of Backlight Technology Turbulence

The expiration of 3M's key Brightness Enhancement Film (BEF) patent last year and the emergence of alternative backlight sources to compete with Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamps (CCFL) have had a major impact on the LCD market. Understanding the repercussions, dangers and opportunities this turmoil has created is the object of this report.

While Kodak and GE have entered the market, smaller and more aggressive Asian competitors appear to be establishing leadership positions in challenging 3M. As a result, competitive suppliers are forecasted to enjoy annual growth of nearly 100% per year in BEF, based on aggressive pricing vs. 3M. And, competitors are also emerging for DBEF supply.

With the emergence of new backlight technologies like LEDs, External Electrode Fluorescent Lamps (EEFL) and maybe even Hot Cathode Fluorescent Lamps (HCFL), the supply chain for light enhancement films is rapidly changing. These backlights require different types of films, which creates new opportunities.
