Patent ID: 7124651

Claim:
A method of accelerated aging comprising providing a component of an illuminated display device in a test chamber; exposing the component to light having a total irradiance at wavelengths between 300 nm and 500 nm wherein an irradiance at wavelengths ranging from 300 nm to 350 nm is less than 3.1% of the total irradiance; an irradiance at wavelengths ranging from greater than 350 nm to 380 nm ranges from 0.2% to 2.2% of the total irradiance; an irradiance at wavelengths ranging from greater than 380 nm to 420 nm ranges from 4.5% to 9.1% of the total irradiance; and an irradiance at wavelength ranging from greater than 420 nm to 500 nm ranges from about 86% to about 95% of the total irradiance.
