Abstract:
A method of transferring a reverse pattern using an imprint process includes: preparing a master mold, where a first pattern is defined on a surface of the master mold; coating an imprint resin on the master mold to cover the first pattern; pressing the imprint resin toward the master mold using a stamp member; curing the imprint resin to form a second pattern between the master mold and the stamp member, where the second pattern has a reverse shape to a shape of the first pattern; detaching the stamp member from the master mold to separate the second pattern from the master mold; and transferring the second pattern onto a transfer substrate.
Abstract:

Abstract:
A three-dimensional (3D) image display apparatus includes a backlight unit configured to provide collimated white light, and a display panel configured to modulate the light provided from the backlight unit based on image information and to display the light in a plurality of viewing zones. The display panel includes a diffractive color filter in which a diffractive element for providing directivity is disposed on a color filter, thereby improving an optical efficiency in 3D image formation.
Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a pattern structure includes preparing a wafer that has a plurality of fine patterns, generating a first trench by processing the wafer from a first surface to a first depth, and generating a second trench connected to the first trench by processing the wafer from a second surface which is opposite to the first surface to a second depth, thereby cutting the wafer.
Abstract:
A directional backlight unit and an image display apparatus including the directional backlight unit are provided. The directional backlight unit includes at least one light source and a light guide plate that guides light emitted by the light source. An interval between grating patterns formed on the light guide plate satisfies at least one condition of a first range and a second range in order to minimize a spreading of light caused by the grating patterns.
Abstract:
There are provided a backlight unit, a 3D image display apparatus, and a method of manufacturing the same. The backlight unit may include a light source, a light guide plate that guides light irradiated from the light source, and including an exit surface through which the light exits, and a reflection plate provided on at least a part of the exit surface of the light guide plate.
Abstract:
A three-dimensional (3D) image display apparatus includes a directional backlight unit and a display panel. The 3D image display apparatus may include an absorptive wire grid polarizer in the directional backlight unit or the display panel, for minimizing a distance between a diffraction device of the directional backlight unit and a pixel of the display panel.
Abstract:
A double-sided glassless three-dimensional (3D) display apparatus including a backlight unit may include an light source unit configured to emit light to the front and the rear thereof by diffracting incident light, and first and second display devices configured to use the light emitted by the light source unit as light for a 3D image formation and to form the 3D image on both sides of the light source unit. The light source unit may include a light source portion configured to emit three lights that have three different respective wavelengths and a light guide panel configured to transmit the lights emitted by the light source portion to the first and second display devices.
