Display apparatus and counter substrate
Performance of a display apparatus is improved. A display apparatus includes: an array substrate including a switching element; and a counter substrate facing the array substrate. In this case, the counter substrate includes: a substrate having a light transmitting property; and an overcoat film being in contact with the substrate, and the overcoat film is made of a plurality of types of films having different refractive indexes.
1 . A display apparatus comprising:
an array substrate including a switching element;
a scan line connected to a gate of the switching element and a signal line connected to a source of the switching element;
a counter substrate facing the array substrate; and
a liquid crystal layer disposing between the array substrate and the counter substrate,
wherein the counter substrate includes:
a substrate having a light transmitting property;
an overcoat film on the substrate; and
an orientation film arranged on the overcoat film and in contact with the liquid crystal layer,
wherein the overcoat film includes a first insulating film having a first refractive index and a second insulating film having a second refractive index,
wherein the second refractive index is lower than the first refractive index,
wherein the second insulating film is provided along the scan line, and
wherein the second insulating film is patterned in stripe.
2 . The display apparatus according to claim 1 ,
wherein the second insulating film includes:
a first surface being in contact with the substrate; and
a second surface opposite to the first surface, and
an area of the second surface is larger than an area of the first surface.
3 . The display apparatus according to claim 1 ,
wherein a color filter is provided on the array substrate.
4 . The display apparatus according to claim 1 ,
wherein a color filter is provided on the counter substrate.
