Abstract

Disclosed are an optical member for a display apparatus and a filter for a display apparatus having the same. The optical member for the display apparatus includes a transparent resin material, and a first optical pattern formed on a surface of the transparent resin material and including a plurality of first shielding parts filled with a light absorbing substance and a conductive substance.

Claims (46)

1 . An optical member for a display apparatus, the optical member comprising:

a transparent resin material; and

a first optical pattern formed on a surface of the transparent resin material, and including a plurality of first shielding parts filled with a light absorbing substance and a conductive substance.

2 . The optical member of claim 1 , further comprising:

a second optical pattern formed on the first optical pattern, and including a plurality of second shielding parts crossing the first optical pattern and having a conductive substance.

3 . The optical member of claim 2 , further comprising:

an electrode disposed on at least a portion of an edge portion of the transparent resin material in such a manner as to cover an end of the second optical pattern.

4 . The optical member of claim 2 , wherein the first optical pattern has a stripe shaped-pattern parallel to a side of the transparent resin material, and the second optical pattern has a stripe shaped-pattern perpendicular to the first optical pattern.

5 . The optical member of claim 1 , wherein each of the first shielding parts has a wedge shape, a trapezoid shape, a U-shape, or a semicircular shape in its cross-sectional area.

6 . The optical member of claim 3 , wherein a width of the electrode is about 10 to 50 mm.

7 . The optical member of claim 3 , wherein the electrode is disposed on a first edge portion adjacent to a side of the transparent resin material and a second edge portion adjacent to another side of the transparent resin material crossing the side of the transparent resin material.

8 . The optical member of claim 3 , wherein the electrode is disposed on the entire edge portion of the transparent resin material.

9 . The optical member of claim 2 , wherein each line width of the second shielding parts is about 5 to 30 μm, each thickness thereof is less than about 30 μm, and each interval therebetween is about 0.3 to 100 mm.

10 . The optical member of claim 1 , wherein each of the first shielding parts includes an electromagnetic wave-shielding portion with a conductive substance and an external light-shielding portion with a light absorbing substance.

11 . The optical member of claim 10 , wherein the external light-shielding portion is formed on an upper portion of each of the first shielding parts, and the electromagnetic wave-shielding portion is formed on a lower portion of each of the first shielding parts.

12 . The optical member of claim 10 , wherein the electromagnetic wave-shielding portion is formed on an upper portion of the each of the first shielding parts, and the external light-shielding portion is formed on a lower portion of each of the first shielding parts.

13 . The optical member of claim 1 , wherein the conductive substance is at least one substance selected from the group consisting of a carbon nanotube, a metal powder, and a metal oxide powder.

14 . The optical member of claim 1 , wherein the conductive substance includes metal particles having a mean particle size of 10 μm or less.

15 . The optical member of claim 10 , wherein a volume ratio between the light absorbing substance and the conductive substance in the external light-shielding portion is about 9:1 to 7:3.

16 . The optical member of claim 10 , wherein a volume ratio between the light absorbing substance and the conductive substance in the electromagnetic wave-shielding portion is about 1:9 to 3:7.

17 . The optical member of claim 1 , wherein each of the first shielding parts includes:

to 40 wt % of a polymer resin,

1 to 10 wt % of the light absorbing substance, and

50 to 85 wt % of the conductive substance.

18 . The optical member of claim 2 , wherein the second shielding parts are formed by screen-printing with a metal paste or by inkjet-coating with a metal paste.

19 . The optical member of claim 3 , wherein the electrode is formed using a metal paste or a metal tape.

20 . A filter for a display apparatus, the filter comprising:

a transparent substrate;

an optical member formed on a surface of the transparent substrate and including:
