Abstract

A cover window for a display device includes a first film; a second film on the first film; an adhesive layer between the first film and the second film; a coating layer on the second film; and an inner anti-reflective layer between the first film and the coating layer.

Claims (54)

1. A cover window for a display device, comprising:

a first film;

a second film on the first film;

an adhesive layer between the first film and the second film;

a coating layer on the second film;

an inner anti-reflective layer between the first film and the coating layer; and

an outer anti-reflective layer on the coating layer, wherein the outer anti-reflective layer is the outermost layer of the cover window.

2. The cover window for the display device of claim 1 , wherein the inner anti-reflective layer comprises at least one of:

a first inner anti-reflective layer between the first film and the adhesive layer;

a second inner anti-reflective layer between the adhesive layer and the second film; and

a third inner anti-reflective layer between the second film and the coating layer.

3. The cover window for the display device of claim 2 ,

wherein a refractive index of the first inner anti-reflective layer is between that of the first film and that of the adhesive layer,

wherein a refractive index of the second inner anti-reflective layer is between that of the adhesive layer and that of the second film, and

wherein a refractive index of the third inner anti-reflective layer is between that of the second film and that of the coating layer.

4. The cover window for the display device of claim 2 , wherein refractive indexes of the first inner anti-reflective layer, the second inner anti-reflective layer, and the third inner anti-reflective layer are each in a range of about 1.467 to about 1.667.

5. The cover window for the display device of claim 2 , wherein thicknesses of the first inner anti-reflective layer, the second inner anti-reflective layer, and the third inner anti-reflective layer are each in a range of about 0.1 μm to about 2 μm.

6. The cover window for the display device of claim 1 , wherein a refractive index of the outer anti-reflective layer is between that of the coating layer and that of air.

7. The cover window for the display device of claim 1 , wherein a refractive index of the outer anti-reflective layer is in a range of about 1.200 to about 1.467.

8. The cover window for the display device of claim 1 ,

wherein the inner anti-reflective layer comprises a binder, and

wherein the binder comprises at least one of silicon, epoxy, acryl, vinyl acetate, a silicon oxide, and an aluminum oxide.

9. The cover window for the display device of claim 1 , wherein the coating layer comprises urethane.

10. The cover window for the display device of claim 1 , wherein the first film and the second film each comprise at least one of polyimide (PI), polyamide-imide (PAI), polyetheretherketone (PEEK), and polyetherimide (PEI).

11. The cover window for the display device of claim 1 , wherein the adhesive layer comprises at least one of ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA), polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), polyurethane (PU), urethane, acryl, and a silicon-based material.

12. A display device comprising:

a display panel; and

a cover window on the display panel,

wherein the cover window comprises:

a first film;

a second film on the first film;

an adhesive layer between the first film and the second film;

a coating layer on the second film;

an inner anti-reflective layer between the first film and the coating layer; and

an outer anti-reflective layer on the coating layer, wherein the outer anti-reflective layer is the outermost layer of the cover window.

13. The display device of claim 12 , wherein the inner anti-reflective layer comprises at least one of:

a first inner anti-reflective layer between the first film and the adhesive layer;

a second inner anti-reflective layer between the adhesive layer and the second film; and

a third inner anti-reflective layer between the second film and the coating layer.

14. The display device of claim 13 ,

wherein a refractive index of the first inner anti-reflective layer is between that of the first film and that of the adhesive layer,

wherein a refractive index of the second inner anti-reflective layer is between that of the adhesive layer and that of the second film, and

wherein a refractive index of the third inner anti-reflective layer is between that of the second film and that of the coating layer.

15. The display device of claim 13 , wherein refractive indexes of the first inner anti-reflective layer, the second inner anti-reflective layer, and the third inner anti-reflective layer are each in a range of about 1.467 to about 1.667.

16. The display device of claim 13 , wherein thicknesses of the first inner anti-reflective layer, the second inner anti-reflective layer, and the third inner anti-reflective layer are each in a range of about 0.1 μm to about 2 μm.

17. The display device of claim 12 , wherein a refractive index of the outer anti-reflective layer is between that of the coating layer and that of air.

18. The display device of claim 12 , wherein a refractive index of the outer anti-reflective layer is in a range of about 1.200 to about 1.467.

19. A cover window for a display device, comprising:

a first film;

a second film on the first film;

an adhesive layer between the first film and the second film;

a coating layer on the second film; and

an inner anti-reflective layer between the first film and the coating layer,

wherein the coating layer comprises a self-restorable urethane material.
