A 3D filter includes a first area having a plurality of even numbered and odd numbered alternating lines, each line having an equal height, the even numbered lines formed with a first polarization characteristic, a first dummy line formed outside of the first area and adjacent to a first line of the 3D filter, the first dummy line having a height greater than a height of a single line, the odd numbered lines formed with a second polarization characteristic, a second dummy line formed outside of the first area and adjacent to a last line of the 3D filter, the second dummy line having a height greater than the height of a single line, the first dummy line formed with a polarization characteristic opposite to a polarization characteristic of a first line in the first area, and the second dummy line formed with a polarization characteristic opposite to a polarization characteristic of a last line in the first area.
