Disclosed is a cinema-type display device employing a typical liquid crystal panel, rather than a cinema-dedicated liquid crystal panel. The display device includes a liquid crystal panel including an active area where an image is output and a bezel area positioned around the active area, a backlight unit for emitting light to a rear surface of the liquid crystal panel, a panel guide including a seating portion where an edge of the rear surface of the liquid crystal panel is seated, and a sidewall portion for covering a side surface of the liquid crystal panel, a bonding member provided in the bezel area to bond the edge of the rear surface of the liquid crystal panel to the seating portion, and a lower polarizing member constituting the rear surface of the liquid crystal panel and having an edge overlapping a part of a front surface of the bonding member.

A display device includes a backlight and a display panel on the backlight. The backlight includes a light source to provide a first light, and an optical wavelength converter to receive the first light and emits a second light. The optical wavelength converter includes a light emitting part having a plurality of excitation light emitting bodies to be excited by receiving the first light, and thereby emit the second light, and a light absorbing part including a plurality of absorbers provided on the light emitting part to receive the second light and absorb a portion of the second light having a wavelength of about 550 nm to about 650 nm.

The purpose of the invention is to realize the liquid crystal display device that has narrow frame area and light from the back light does not leak. The structure of the present invention is: A liquid crystal display device having a liquid crystal display panel and a back light comprising; the liquid crystal display panel has a first side, a second side, which crosses the first side, and a corner that connects the first side and the second side, the side surface of the liquid crystal display panel and the side surface of the back light are fixed to each other by the black resin at the first side and at the second side, a light shield film that is different from the black resin is formed on the side surface of the liquid crystal display panel and the side surface of the back light at the corner.

Liquid crystal modulator optical devices and more specifically shutters and smart windows are presented. The liquid crystal modulator devices are characterized by a reduced polymer content which is eliminated from the material composition of the liquid crystal layer and characterized by non-uniform electrode structures in the liquid crystal structure configured to generate spatially non-uniform electric fields and therefore non-uniform molecular reorientation of liquid crystal molecules. This arrangement advantageously makes light scattering electrically controllable.

A reflectance-variable mirror using a liquid crystal cell is disclosed herein. In an embodiment, the reflectance-variable mirror may comprise a first liquid crystal cell including a guest host liquid crystal layer, a first reflective polarizing film, a second liquid crystal cell including a retardation-variable liquid crystal layer, a second reflective polarizing film and an absorbing plate sequentially. The reflectance-variable mirror can realize excellent reflectance-variable characteristics by lowering the reflectance in an antireflection mode.

A color conversion panel includes a substrate and a red color conversion layer, a green color conversion layer, and a transmission layer which are disposed on the substrate. The transmission layer includes at least one of a pigment and a dye.

Certain embodiments relate to optical devices and methods of fabricating optical devices that pre-treat a sub-layer to enable selective removal of the pre-treated sub-layer and overlying layers. Other embodiments pertain to methods of fabricating an optical device that apply a sacrificial material layer.

A display apparatus includes a blue light blocking layer to block a blue light which is not converted by a color conversion layer, and a reflection preventing layer over the blue light blocking layer to prevent reflection of external light incident thereon.

The present disclosure relates to a reflective device and a display apparatus. In one embodiment, a reflective device includes: a resonant cavity configured to reflect a light of a first wavelength range; and a light conversion structure disposed within the resonant cavity and configured to convert an incident light of a second wavelength range into the light of the first wavelength range.

In an embodiment, a display device comprises a display panel and a backlight unit. The backlight unit comprises a printed circuit, a light-emitting device on the printed circuit, and a transparent film including a holographic film. The holographic film includes at least an optical pattern overlapping the light-emitting device and modifying angle of a portion of light emitted by the light-emitting device. The backlight unit further comprises a light output pattern, where the portion of light with the modified angle passes through the light output pattern toward the display panel. The light output pattern may have a refractive index greater than a refractive index of the transparent film such that a refraction angle of the portion of light exiting the light output pattern is less than the incidence angle of the portion of light entering the light output pattern.
