Control of illumination spectra for LCD displays

An LCD (liquid crystal display) comprising:

• a backlight unit configured to provide illumination, and
• an LCD panel configured to receive illumination from the backlight unit and comprising, sequentially with respect to the received illumination:
• a polarizing film, a liquid crystal layer, an analyzer film, an RGB (red, green, blue) color filter layer which is integrated with a color conversion film that is folded into a zig-zag shape, and a protective layer, the RGB color filter layer comprises RGB color filters, wherein in respect to the received illumination—the RGB filters follows the color conversion layer, wherein each of the RGB color filters is configured to (a) pass a RGB light component and (b) to remove two other RGB light components;
• wherein the color conversion film further comprises at least one fluorescent compound selected to have, when embedded in the color conversion film, an absorption peak outside a respective transmission region of one of the RGB filters and a fluorescence peak inside the respective transmission region of a RGB filter of the RGB filters,
• wherein the color conversion film comprises rhodamine-based fluorescent (RBF) compounds selected to (a) absorb illumination from the backlight unit, (b) perform color conversion and (c) emit emitted radiation, wherein the RBF compounds have at least one of a Red emission peak and a Green emission peak;
• and
• wherein the color conversion film is positioned between a first optical element that comprises a dual brightness enhancement film (DBEF) film which is transparent to blue light and reflective to red and green light, and a second optical element that comprises another DBEF film that is transparent to the blue light and reflective to the red and green light.
