Abstract:
The present invention provides a roller nanoimprint apparatus capable of preventing a workpiece film with nanostructures having been transferred from the mold roller from being uneven in thickness and allowing easy replacement of the mold roller. The present invention is a roller nanoimprint apparatus including a mold roller and continuously transferring nanosized protrusions to a surface of a workpiece film by rotating the mold roller, wherein the mold roller is a cylindrical body, having an outer circumference surface with nanosized recesses formed thereon, the roller nanoimprint apparatus further includes a fluid container having an elastic film inflatable by injecting fluid into the container, the fluid container being arranged in a region defined by an inner circumference surface of the mold roller, the mold roller is mounted or demounted when the elastic film is shrunken, and the mold roller is supported from the inside when the elastic film is inflated.
Abstract:
An antireflection film of the present invention includes a plurality of first raised portions, each of which has a two-dimensional size of not less than 1 μm and less than 100 μm when seen in a direction normal to the film, and a plurality of second raised portions, each of which has a two-dimensional size of not less than 10 nm and less than 500 nm when seen in a direction normal to the film. In at least one embodiment, the antireflection film has a first surface shape or a second surface shape that is inverse to the first surface shape relative to a film surface. In the first surface shape, the second raised portions are provided on the first raised portions and between the plurality of first raised portions, and the elevation angle α of a surface of the first raised portions relative to the film surface is about 90° or more. The antireflection film of the present invention has a more excellent antiglare function than conventional ones.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a transflective display device capable of extending a color reproduction range and reducing a difference in white balance between transmissive display and reflective display. The display device of the present invention is a transflective display device including four or more filters having different colors in a pixel, each of the four or more filters having different colors including: a transmissive region for displaying an image by transmitting light from a backlight; and a reflective region for displaying an image by reflecting surrounding light, wherein at least two of the four or more filters having different colors are different in a proportion of an area of the reflective region, and the proportion of the area is represented by the following formula (1): Proportion of area of reflective region=Area of reflective region/Effective area of filter (1).
Abstract:
A display device in which an image with a wide color reproduction range and bright red can be displayed is provided. The display device is a display device such as, for example, a liquid crystal display device, a cathode ray tube, an organic electroluminescent display device, a plasma display panel, and a field emission display. The display device includes a display surface including a pixel having red, green, blue, and yellow sub-pixels, wherein the red sub-pixel preferably has the largest aperture area.

Abstract:
A liquid crystal display device of an embodiment of the present invention includes a liquid crystal layer, a specular reflection layer, the polarization layer disposed on the viewer's side, a retardation layer interposed between the liquid crystal layer and the polarization layer, and a light scattering layer disposed on the viewer's side of the polarization layer. The light scattering layer has a scattering surface. The scattering surface includes a macro uneven structure which has light scatterability and a micro uneven structure which is superimposedly formed over the macro uneven structure and which is smaller than visible light wavelengths.
Abstract:
A transflective display device capable of suppressing white balance from shifting to yellow includes filters of R, G, B, and Y, and a region corresponding to a reflective member in the Y filter is covered with a BM. Therefore, filters used in the reflective display are limited to three colors of R, G, and B, and thereby white balance can be prevented from shifting to yellow.
