20110242463 | OPTICAL FILTER FOR REDUCING COLOR SHIFT IN A DISPLAY DEVICE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME - An optical filter for reducing color shift in a display device includes a background layer made of a light-transmitting material and a light-diffusing pattern formed over the background layer to diffuse light. The light-diffusing pattern is a thin film coating applied along the cross section of the background layer in the depth direction thereof. The light-diffusing pattern is a self-assembled thin film in which the light-diffusing particles are self-assembled. A method of manufacturing the optical filter includes forming a concave-convex pattern layer made of a first light-transmitting material and having a concave-convex pattern, and forming the light-diffusing pattern along the sidewall surface of the concave section of the concave-convex pattern. After the light-diffusing pattern is formed, the concave section is filled with a second light-transmitting material, and the light-diffusing particles are removed from the upper surface of the convex section. | 10-06-2011 |
20120300159 | Optical Film For Reducing Color Shift And Liquid Crystal Display Having The Same - A liquid crystal display for reducing color shift includes a liquid crystal layer, which is disposed between front and rear polarizer layers, and an optical film for reducing color shift, which is disposed between the liquid crystal layer and the front polarizer layer.
