Abstract:
Provided is a liquid crystal display including: a first substrate; a wire grid polarizer disposed on the first substrate and including a first region and a second region spaced apart from each other by a stitch line; and a first thin film layer disposed on the wire grid polarizer. The stitch line includes a shape of a curved line or a series of straight lines connected by bends.
Abstract:
Provided is a polarizer. The polarizer includes a base layer and a wire grid layer which is disposed on the base layer and which include a plurality of wire metal patterns extending along a first direction and spaced apart from each other along a second direction crossing the first direction, wherein the wire grid layer is made of an aluminum (Al) alloy containing nickel (Ni) and lanthanum (La).
Abstract:
A wire grid polarizer including a substrate, parallel conductive wire patterns which protrude from a top surface of the substrate, non-conductive wire patterns which are formed on the conductive wire patterns, respectively, and a protective layer which is formed on the conductive wire patterns and the non-conductive wire patterns. The protective layer includes first transparent particles having a diameter greater than a period of the conductive wire patterns, and spaces between the conductive wire patterns are filled with air or are evacuated to form a vacuum.
Abstract:
A polarizer and a liquid crystal display including the polarizer, the polarizer including a plurality of metal lines extending in one direction and being arranged at regular intervals; and a plurality of low reflection layers on the plurality of metal lines, the plurality of low reflection layers contacting respective upper parts of the plurality of metal lines and having an interval and a width about equal to an interval and a width of the plurality of metal lines, wherein the interval of the plurality of metal lines is smaller than a wavelength of a visible ray, and light incident from an upper side of the plurality of low reflection layers is reflected with reflectivity equal to or smaller than 10%.
Abstract:
A liquid crystal display apparatus includes a liquid crystal layer, a light source, a first polarizing member, and a reflector. The first polarizing member includes a wire-grid polarizing part and a reflection part. The first polarizing member is disposed between the liquid crystal layer and the light source. The reflector is disposed below the light source. The reflector reflects light from the light source and light reflected from the reflection part.
