Abstract:
A display device includes an optical member, a display panel disposed on the optical member, and a plurality of light emitting units disposed under the optical member, the optical member comprising, a diffusion layer, and a reflectivity control layer which is disposed under the diffusion layer and reflects a light provided from the light emitting units, including a first base material, reflective materials dispersed in the first base material, a plurality of first portions corresponding to the plurality of light emitting units, and a second portion disposed adjacent to the first portions, where each of the plurality of first portions comprises a greater amount of the reflective materials than the second portion, when a first portion and a second portion represent a unit area having a predetermined size.
Abstract:
A backlight unit includes a display panel, a light guide plate beneath the display panel, a light source spaced apart from the light guide plate in a first direction, a plurality of first optical patterns beneath the light guide plate while extending in the first direction and being arranged in a second direction intersecting the first direction, and a plurality of second optical patterns beneath the plurality of first optical patterns. Each of the plurality of first optical patterns has a quadrangle shape when viewed in the first direction.
Abstract:
Disclosed are display devices and methods of fabricating the same. The display device comprises a display panel, an optical layer on the display panel, and a backlight unit that is below the display panel and provides the display panel with light. The optical layer includes a plurality of optical fiber segments, and an air layer between the optical fiber segments. The light generated from the backlight unit is provided to the optical fiber segments through the display panel, and the light is diffused by the optical fiber segments and an air layer dispersed among the optical fiber segments.

Abstract:
A tiled display device includes a plurality of display panel modules arranged adjacent to each other. Each of the plurality of display panel modules includes a display panel including a display area and a bezel area at least partially surrounding the display area, a light blocking layer disposed on the display panel and extending from the display area to a portion of the bezel area, and a protective layer disposed on the light blocking layer. In the bezel area, a distance from an end of the display panel to an end of the protective layer is greater than a distance from the end of the display panel to an end of the light blocking layer. Accordingly, an air layer is not formed between the protective layer and the display panel. A visibility of a seam area is reduced.
Abstract:
An optical film includes a first pattern layer including a base part and a plurality of protruding parts disposed on the base part, and having a first refractive index, and a second pattern layer disposed on the first pattern layer and having a second refractive index greater than the first refractive index. Each of the protruding parts includes a bottom surface adjacent to the base part, an upper surface opposite to the bottom surface and parallel to the bottom surface, and a side surface disposed between the bottom surface and the upper surface. The side surface includes three or more sub-inclined surfaces, inclination angles of which are different from each other, or includes a curved surface which is convex in a direction of the second pattern layer.
Abstract:
A display device includes a backlight assembly and a display panel which displays an image. The backlight assembly includes a light emitting unit which generates light, and an optical member which adjusts a path of the light incident thereto and outputs the light toward the display panel. The optical member includes a first base film to which the light is incident, a second base film closer to the display panel than the first base film and for which are defined first and second areas alternately disposed, a first optical pattern between the first and second base films at the first area, where the first optical pattern refracts therein the light incident to the first base film, and a second optical pattern between the first and second base films at the second area, where the second optical pattern scatters the light incident to the first base film.
