Disclosed herein is a display apparatus. The display apparatus includes a backlight unit configured to emit light, a display panel positioned in front of the backlight unit, and an optical film positioned in front of the display panel. The optical film includes a base layer positioned adjacent to the display panel, a first refractive layer positioned in front of the base layer and having a pattern including a first inclined portion totally reflecting some of light waves emitted from the backlight unit, and a second refractive layer positioned in front of the first refractive layer and having a lower refractive index than the first refractive layer.

Display apparatus

Disclosed herein is a display apparatus. The display apparatus includes a backlight unit configured to emit light, a display panel positioned in front of the backlight unit; and an optical film positioned in front of the display panel, and the optical film includes a base layer, a first refractive layer positioned in front of the base layer, a second refractive layer positioned in front of the first refractive layer and having a lower refractive index than the first refractive layer, a third refractive layer positioned at the rear of the base layer, and a fourth refractive layer positioned at the rear of the third refractive layer and having a lower refractive index than the third refractive layer.

A display device includes a backlight unit configured to emit light, a display panel disposed in front of the backlight unit, and an optical sheet disposed between the backlight unit and the display panel. The optical sheet may include a first prism sheet including a plurality of first prisms arranged in a first direction, a second prism sheet including a plurality of second prisms arranged in a second direction intersecting the first direction, and disposed in front of the first prism sheet; and a third prism sheet including a plurality of third prisms arranged in the first direction, and disposed in front of the second prism sheet.

Display device

A display device includes a display panel for displaying an image, a light source module including a plurality of light sources, and an optical sheet provided between the display panel and the light source module for guiding light radiated by the light source module to the display panel. The optical sheet includes a first transparent layer including a plurality of grooves provided on a first surface of the optical sheet that is opposite to the display panel, and having a first refraction index, a second transparent layer provided in each of the plurality of grooves and having a second refraction index that is different from the first refraction index, and a reflective layer including a light reflective material provided in each of the plurality of grooves and covering the second transparent layer, and including a light-reflective material.
