A high intensity backlight for use with large LCD panels has been developed. It supports the performance and environmental requirements of a display intended for outdoor applications. It uses an inductively coupled electrodeless fluorescent lamp. The backlight lamp has a lifetime of 100,000 hours with instant starting at −40°C and a stable light output over a 70°C temperature span. The backlight design has been optimized for luminance uniformity and efficiency within a display depth of 6″. A wide format 22″ LCD display with this backlight technology provides an image brightness of 1,200 cd/m 2 from a single 150‐watt lamp.
