Description

A light path control member and a display device including the same

Embodiments relate to a light path control member and a display device including the same.

The light blocking film blocks the transmission of light from the light source. It is attached to the front of the display panel, which is a display device used for mobile phones, laptops, tablet PCs, vehicle navigation, and vehicle touch, and the angle of incidence of light when the display transmits the screen. Accordingly, it is used for the purpose of expressing clear image quality at the required viewing angle by adjusting the viewing angle of the light.

In addition, the light-shielding film is used for a window of a vehicle or a building to partially block external light to prevent glare or to prevent the inside from being seen from the outside.

That is, the light blocking film may be a light path control member that controls a movement path of light to block light in a specific direction and transmit light in a specific direction. Accordingly, by controlling the light transmission angle by the light-shielding film, it is possible to control the viewing angle of the user.

On the other hand, such a light-shielding film is a light-shielding film that can always control the viewing angle regardless of the surrounding environment or the user's environment, and a switchable light-shielding film that allows the user to turn on/off the viewing angle control according to the surrounding environment or the user's environment. can be distinguished.

Such a switchable light blocking film may be implemented by filling the inside of the pattern part with particles that can move according to the application of voltage and a dispersion liquid for dispersing them, and the pattern part is changed into a light transmitting part and a light blocking part by dispersion and aggregation of the particles.

That is, the switchable light blocking film may include a plurality of patterns filled with a dispersion liquid to change the path of light.

Accordingly, there is a problem in that the dispersion liquid flows to the outside while the switchable light blocking film is in use, or impurities penetrate into the dispersion liquid, so that the driving characteristics and reliability of the switchable light blocking film are deteriorated.

In addition, when the switchable light blocking film is combined with a display panel and the like to be used as a display device, the pattern of the switchable light blocking film and the pattern of the display panel may overlap and a moire phenomenon may occur. Accordingly, when a user uses the display device, there is a problem in that visibility is reduced due to moire.

Accordingly, there is a need for a light path control member having a new structure capable of solving the above problems.
