Abstract:
A foldable display device includes a display panel including a folding area and a planar area which is adjacent to the folding area, a window on the display panel, and a window protective layer on the window. The window protective layer includes a restoration layer including a soft pattern corresponding to the folding area, a plastic film on the restoration layer, and a hard coating layer on the plastic film.
Abstract:
Embodiments provide a window and a display device including the window. The window includes a base substrate including a first surface and a second surface which face each other, and a filling portion. The base substrate has a concave portion defined on at least one of the first surface and the second surface, a difference between a refractive index of the base substrate at a wavelength of about 589 nm and a refractive index of the filling portion is less than or equal to about 0.02, a difference between an Abbe No. of the base substrate and an Abbe No. of the filling portion is less than or equal to about 5.0, and the filling portion fills the concave portion. The window and the display thus exhibits satisfactory folding properties and impact resistance, as well as improved optical properties and display quality that prevent reflection color from being viewed.
Abstract:
A display device includes a window module disposed on a display module. The display module has a peripheral region disposed on at least one side of an active region. The window module includes a pattern layer disposed adjacent to a window and overlapping the active region and the peripheral region. The pattern layer includes a transparent portion and a discoloration portion having a light transmittance lower than that of the transparent portion. Each of the transparent portion and the discoloration portion includes a discoloration inducer activated by a laser, so that the display device exhibits good display quality and excellent reliability properties.
Abstract:
An adhesive member includes a first adhesive layer having a first storage modulus at a temperature of about 25° C. and a second adhesive layer disposed directly on the first adhesive layer and including a first portion adjacent to the first adhesive layer and having a second storage modulus greater than the first storage modulus at the temperature of about 25° C. and a second portion spaced apart from the first portion in a thickness direction and having a third storage modulus smaller than the second storage modulus at the temperature of about 25° C.
Abstract:
A display device includes a display module. An adhesive member is disposed directly on the display module. A window is disposed directly on the adhesive member. The adhesive member includes a first adhesive layer disposed adjacent to the display module and having a first storage modulus at −20° C. A second adhesive layer is disposed directly on the first adhesive layer and has a second storage modulus at −20° ° C. The second storage modulus is greater than the first storage modulus.
Abstract:
A window includes: a substrate including a folding area, a non-folding area, an upper surface, and a lower surface, wherein the folding area is configured to fold about a folding axis; and a plurality of groove patterns arranged in the folding area along a first direction crossing the folding axis, wherein each of the plurality of groove patterns includes: a bottom surface recessed from the upper surface of the substrate and substantially parallel to the upper surface of the substrate; and a side surface, wherein each side surface of the plurality of groove patterns connects each bottom surface of the plurality of groove patterns to the upper surface of the substrate, and wherein the side surface includes at least one curved surface.
Abstract:
A backlight unit includes a light source. A light guide plate receives light supplied from the light source at an incident light part of the light guide plate. A reflective sheet is positioned below the light guide plate and reflects light upwardly. A diffuser sheet is formed on the light guide plate and diffuses the light to transfer the diffused light upwardly. The diffuser sheet includes a color material, and a concentration of the color material within the diffuser sheet is dependent upon a distance from the incident light part.
