Each of the pixels includes a light blocking part configured to define a first opening, a second opening, and a third opening, a first color filter which overlaps the first opening, a second color filter which overlaps the second opening and having a green color, a third color filter which overlaps the third opening, and a wire grid polarizer including a first stitch line spaced apart from the second opening in a plan view.
Abstract:
A liquid crystal display device includes a wire grid polarizer, in which the wire grid polarizer is directly formed on a lower substrate, thereby decreasing the thickness of the liquid crystal display. In the wire grid polarizer formed on the lower substrate, a plurality of protective layers are formed on polarizing patterns that perform a polarizing function, so that it is possible to reduce or minimize the deterioration of characteristics of thin film transistors of the liquid crystal display, which are formed on the protective layers.

A liquid crystal display device includes a liquid crystal display panel and a backlight unit providing light to the liquid crystal display panel. The liquid crystal display panel includes a first substrate on which a thin film transistor is disposed, a second substrate facing the first substrate, a liquid crystal layer disposed between the first substrate and the second substrate, and a first polarizer disposed on the second substrate having a plurality of metal patterns spaced apart from each other by an interval. The backlight unit faces the second substrate.

Abstract:
A polarizer includes a buffer member and linear metal patterns. The buffer member includes protrusions. Each protrusion has downwardly-increasing width. The buffer member is formed of polymer. The linear metal patterns, spaced apart from each other, are extended in a first direction. Each linear metal pattern covers a respective protrusion.

An exemplary embodiment discloses an imprint lithography method including: forming a first imprint pattern on a base substrate in a first area; forming a first resist pattern on the base substrate in a second area, the second area partially overlapping the first area; etching a third area using the first imprint pattern and the first resist pattern as an etch barrier, wherein the third area is a portion of the first area that is not overlapped with the second area; removing the first imprint pattern and the first resist pattern; forming a second imprint pattern on the base substrate in a fourth area which overlaps the second area and partially overlaps the third area; forming a second resist pattern on the base substrate in the third area; and etching the second area using the second imprint pattern and the second resist pattern as an etch barrier.
Abstract:
A polarizer includes a base substrate and a metal pattern disposed on the base substrate and forming a wire grid. The wire grid has a width and a height and spaced apart from adjacent wire grid by a separation distance. A pitch is a sum of the width and the separation distance. A fill factor is obtained by dividing the width by the pitch. The range of the fill factor is based on an extinction ratio of polarization and a transmittance of the polarizer.
