Abstract

The present disclosure provides a transparent display device including a first substrate and a second substrate, and the second substrate is opposite to the first substrate. The light blocking element is disposed between the first substrate and the second substrate, and the light blocking element has a light transmitting opening. The light blocking element further has another light transmitting opening, and the another light transmitting opening and the light transmitting opening have different areas.

Claims (15)

1. A transparent display device, comprising:

a first substrate and a second substrate, the second substrate being opposite to the first substrate;

a light blocking element disposed between the first substrate and the second substrate, the light blocking element having a light transmitting opening and a partition wall disposed between the first substrate and the second substrate, wherein the partition wall has a plurality of first display openings; and

a plurality of display elements, wherein at least one of the plurality of display elements is disposed in one of the plurality of first display openings;

wherein the light blocking element further has another light transmitting opening, and the another light transmitting opening and the light transmitting opening have different areas.

2. The transparent display device according to claim 1 , wherein the light transmitting opening has at least two sides, and the at least two sides form a round corner.

3. The transparent display device according to claim 1 , wherein the light blocking element comprises a light blocking layer disposed between the first substrate and the second substrate, and the light blocking layer has a first opening.

4. The transparent display device according to claim 3 , wherein the partition wall disposed between the light blocking layer and the first substrate, the partition wall has a second opening corresponding to the first opening, and the first opening and the second opening define the light transmitting opening.

5. The transparent display device according to claim 4 , wherein the light blocking layer has a plurality of second display openings, and the plurality of first display openings correspond to the plurality of second display openings respectively.

6. The transparent display device according to claim 5 , further comprising a plurality of color filter layers respectively disposed in the plurality of second display openings.

7. The transparent display device according to claim 4 , wherein a thickness of the partition wall in a normal direction of the first substrate is greater than a thickness of the light blocking layer in the normal direction of the first substrate.

8. The transparent display device according to claim 1 , wherein the light transmitting opening has a major axis along a first direction and a minor axis along a second direction, a ratio of the major axis to the minor axis is greater than 1 and less than 1.5, and the first direction is different from the second direction.

9. The transparent display device according to claim 1 , further comprising a transparent filling layer disposed in the light transmitting opening.

10. The transparent display device according to claim 1 , further comprising a transmittance controlling element, wherein the light transmitting opening overlaps the transmittance controlling element in a normal direction of the first substrate.

11. The transparent display device according to claim 10 , wherein the transmittance controlling element comprises a first electrode layer, a second electrode layer, and a liquid crystal layer.
