1. A prism sheet, comprising:
- a base comprising an upper surface; and
a plurality of lenses disposed on the upper surface;
wherein in a cross-section of the prism sheet, the upper surface is a continuous curve having a plurality of wave crests in different sizes and a plurality of wave troughs in different sizes;
wherein the upper surface is wavy along a first direction and extends out linearly in a second direction, the first direction being perpendicular to the second direction;
wherein the plurality of lenses form a serrated surface along the first direction and extend out linearly in the second direction, and each of the plurality of lenses is a long straight column having a triangular cross-section being parallel to each other.
