The 2D/3D switchable image display device forms gradation of an image in a light modulation panel, provides color to light beams that penetrate a plurality of electro-wetting prisms arranged in correspondence to the plurality of pixels of the image, and adjusts the direction of the light beam such that the light beams of the pixels of the image are directed towards at least two different view zones in a 3D mode and such that the light beams maintain their paths in a 2D mode.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a master for manufacturing a mold, a mold for manufacturing a display device, a manufacturing method of the mold using the master, and a manufacturing method of the display device using the mold in an imprinting process. A master for manufacturing a mold according to one or more embodiments of the present invention comprises a substrate, and a master pattern formed on the substrate and comprising an embossed portion, wherein the embossed portion comprises levees formed on both edges thereof. A side surface of the embossed portion may form an angle of about 60 to 90 degrees with a surface of the substrate. When the mold manufactured using the master is used in the imprinting process to manufacture the display device, air bubbles are kept away from the side surface of a resin pattern. Accordingly, defects of the wire pattern of the display device may be prevented.
