A polarizer includes a buffer member and linear metal patterns. The buffer member includes protrusions. Each protrusion has downwardly-increasing width. The buffer member is formed of polymer. The linear metal patterns, spaced apart from each other, are extended in a first direction. Each linear metal pattern covers a respective protrusion.

Polarizer, display panel including the same and method of manufacturing the same

A method of manufacturing a polarizer, the method including: forming a metal layer on a substrate; forming a hard mask on the metal layer; forming an adhesion layer on a portion of the hard mask; forming a polymer layer on the hard mask and the adhesion layer; pressing a mold on the polymer layer to form a lattice pattern in association with the polymer layer; removing the mold and a portion of the lattice pattern; and patterning the adhesion layer, the hard mask, and the metal layer using a remaining portion of the lattice pattern as a mask.

Method of manufacturing a polarizer with reduced reflecitivity and a display panel having the same

A polarizer includes a base substrate, a polarizing layer disposed on the base substrate and including a plurality of first linear extensions spaced apart from each other, and an ultraviolet (UV)-blocking layer including a plurality of second linear extensions spaced apart from each other and crossing the first linear extensions. The polarizer may block an external UV light.

Polarizer and display panel having the same

A method of fabricating a polarizing member includes: sequentially disposing a metal layer and a preliminary pattern layer on a base substrate including a display area and a non-display area; forming a patterned resin layer on the preliminary pattern layer in the display area, the patterned resin layer including patterns formed on a surface of the patterned resin layer; surface-treating the preliminary pattern layer and the patterned resin layer; forming a mask pattern including a photoresist material on the preliminary pattern layer disposed in the non-display area; forming preliminary patterns on the preliminary pattern layer using the patterned resin layer; and forming a wire grid polarizing unit in the display area by etching the metal layer using the preliminary pattern and the mask pattern as a polarizing pattern.
