Abstract

Provided are a window and a display panel including the window. The window includes a window substrate, an anti-reflection layer disposed on the window substrate, an anti-fingerprint layer disposed over the anti-reflection layer, and an intermediate layer disposed between the anti-reflection layer and the anti-fingerprint layer, wherein the anti-reflection layer includes a first sub-layer including a first inorganic insulating material, and a second sub-layer including a second inorganic insulating material different from the first inorganic insulating material, and the first inorganic insulating material includes two or more types of inorganic insulating materials including aluminum oxide.

Claims (45)

1 . A window comprising:

a window substrate;

an anti-reflection layer disposed on the window substrate;

an anti-fingerprint layer disposed over the anti-reflection layer; and

an intermediate layer disposed between the anti-reflection layer and the anti-fingerprint layer, wherein

the anti-reflection layer includes:

a first sub-layer including a first inorganic insulating material, and

a second sub-layer including a second inorganic insulating material different from

the first inorganic insulating material, and

the first inorganic insulating material includes two or more types of inorganic insulating materials including aluminum oxide.

2 . The window of claim 1 , wherein the first inorganic insulating material includes yttrium oxide.

3 . The window of claim 1 , wherein the first sub-layer includes at least about 80 weight % of aluminum oxide based on a total weight of the first sub-layer.

4 . The window of claim 1 , wherein the second inorganic insulating material includes two or more types of inorganic insulating materials including zirconium oxide.

5 . The window of claim 4 , wherein the second inorganic insulating material includes tantalum oxide.

6 . The window of claim 4 , wherein the second sub-layer includes at least about 80 weight % of zirconium oxide based on a total weight of the second sub-layer.

7 . The window of claim 1 , wherein the anti-reflection layer has a structure in which the first sub-layer and the second sub-layer are alternately stacked with each other.

8 . The window of claim 1 , wherein a refractive index of the first sub-layer is less than a refractive index of the second sub-layer.

9 . The window of claim 1 , wherein a refractive index of the first sub-layer is in a range of about 1.2 to about 2.0.

10 . The window of claim 1 , wherein a refractive index of the second sub-layer is in a range of about 1.5 to about 2.6.

11 . The window of claim 1 , wherein the window has a reflectance of less than about 2.0%.

12 . The window of claim 1 , wherein the window has a surface hardness of about 10 GPa or more.

13 . A display panel comprising:

a substrate;

a display element arranged in a display area of the substrate, the display element including a first electrode, a second electrode, and an emission layer disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode;

an encapsulation member disposed on the display element; and

a window disposed on the encapsulation member, wherein

the window includes:

a window substrate;

an anti-reflection layer disposed on the window substrate;

an anti-fingerprint layer disposed over the anti-reflection layer; and

an intermediate layer disposed between the anti-reflection layer and the anti-fingerprint layer,

the anti-reflection layer includes:

a first sub-layer including a first inorganic insulating material, and

a second sub-layer including a second inorganic insulating material different from

the first inorganic insulating material, and

the first inorganic insulating material includes two or more types of inorganic insulating materials including aluminum oxide.

14 . The display panel of claim 13 , wherein the first inorganic insulating material includes yttrium oxide.

15 . The display panel of claim 13 , wherein the first sub-layer includes at least about 80 weight % of aluminum oxide based on a total weight of the first sub-layer.

16 . The display panel of claim 13 , wherein the second inorganic insulating material includes two or more types of inorganic insulating materials including zirconium oxide.

17 . The display panel of claim 16 , wherein the second inorganic insulating material includes tantalum oxide.

18 . The display panel of claim 13 , wherein the anti-reflection layer has a structure in which the first sub-layer and the second sub-layer are alternately stacked with each other.

19 . The display panel of claim 13 , wherein a refractive index of the first sub-layer is less than a refractive index of the second sub-layer.

20 . The display panel of claim 13 , wherein a refractive index of the first sub-layer is in a range of about 1.2 to about 2.0.

21 . The display panel of claim 13 , wherein the window has a reflectance of less than about 2.0%.

22 . The display panel of claim 13 , wherein the window has a surface hardness of about 10 GPa or more.
