Abstract

A mold for an optical plate includes a first core having a first surface; a second core opposite to the first core to form a molding space and having a second surface, the first surface and the second surface defining the molding space; and a specular layer formed on at least one of the first surface or the second surface.

Claims (14)

1. A mold for an optical plate comprising:

a first core having a first surface;

a second core having a second surface, the second core formed opposite the first core, wherein the first surface and the second surface define a molding space; and

a specular layer formed on at least one of the first surface and the second surface, wherein at least one of the first core or the second comprises a body and a ceramic layer to cover the body, and the specular layer is formed on the ceramic layer.

2. The mold for the optical plate according to claim 1 , wherein the specular layer comprises metal.

3. The mold for the optical plate according to claim 2 , wherein the specular layer comprises at least one of gold, silver, aluminum, copper or nickel.

4. The mold for the optical plate according to claim 2 , wherein the specular layer is about 200 μm to about 300 μm in thickness.

5. The mold for the optical plate according to claim 2 , wherein a surface of the specular layer facing the molding space is substantially flat.

6. The mold for the optical plate according to claim 2 , wherein at least one of the first core or the second core comprises ceramic.

7. The mold for the optical plate according to claim 2 , wherein a coolant flow channel is provided in at least one of the first core or the second core.

8. The mold for the optical plate according to claim 2 , further comprising a pattern forming part formed on the specular layer.

9. The mold for the optical plate according to claim 8 , wherein a grooved dot pattern or a grooved prism is formed on the pattern forming part.

10. The mold for the optical plate according to claim 2 , further comprising a pair of core blocks which is disposed at a lateral side of the first core and the second core.

11. The mold for the optical plate according to claim 10 , further comprising a gate to inject resin to the molding space, wherein the gate is provided at least one of the pair of core blocks.
