Abstract

An optical film includes a plane and a plurality of dents. The plane has a normal, and the dents are formed on the plane. Each of the dents is asymmetric relative to the normal, wherein each of the dents includes an opening, and the maximum aperture of each of the dents is the caliber of the opening.

Claims (16)

1. An optical film, comprising:

a plane, comprising a normal; and

a plurality of dents, forming on the plane, each of the dents being asymmetric relative to the normal, wherein each of the dents comprises an opening, an axis and a bottom, and a maximum value of an aperture of each of the dents is a caliber of the opening, the axis is not coaxial with the normal, and the orthographic projection of the bottom on the plane is near the opening and does not overlap the opening, to enable the light incident into the dents to be not reflected collectively and not reflected to the user's eye.

2. The optical film according to claim 1 , wherein an angle between the axis of one of the dents and the normal is ranged between 15 degrees to 45 degrees.

3. The optical film according to claim 1 , wherein the aperture of each of the dents is decreased from the opening to the bottom.

4. The optical film according to claim 1 , wherein the optical film is transparent or translucent.

5. The optical film according to claim 1 , wherein a total area of the openings is 50% or more than 50% of an area of the plane.

6. The optical film according to claim 1 , wherein the dents are regularly arranged on the plane.

7. The optical film according to claim 1 , wherein the dents are irregularly arranged on the plane.

8. The optical film according to claim 1 , wherein the optical film is a diffuser or a phase retarder.

9. The optical film according to claim 1 , wherein the maximum value of the aperture of each of the dents is greater than 1 μm.

10. The optical film according to claim 1 , wherein at least two of the openings are different in shape.

11. The optical film according to claim 1 , wherein the openings are identical in shape.

12. The optical film according to claim 1 , wherein at least two of the openings are different in area.

13. The optical film according to claim 1 , wherein the openings are identical in area.

14. The optical film according to claim 1 , wherein the dents further include axes respectively, and the axes extend toward an identical direction.
