A display panel includes a plurality of light guides which emit received light, and a plurality of external light blocking members which are disposed between exit surfaces of the plurality of light guides, and block light from the outside. Accordingly, the bright room contrast of the PDP is enhanced.

Display device having light blocking members

A film adhered on a display panel includes a black layer for preventing an external light from entering into the display panel, and a reflective layer for preventing light emitted from the display panel from being absorbed in the black layer. The film minimizes the influence of an external light and improves transmittance, thereby providing a user with a good-quality picture.

Provided are a projection optical system, a projection television, and a method of manufacturing a lens included in the projection optical system. The projection optical system includes lenses for projecting color beams onto a screen. A color filter layer, absorbing at least one of the color beams, is coated on the surface of at least one of the lenses.

Projection optical system, projection television, and method of manufacturing lens included in projection optical system

Provided is an image display screen having wide horizontal and vertical viewing angles and a projection television including the same. The image display screen includes a Fresnel screen, a first lenticular screen that widens a horizontal viewing angle and a second lenticular screen including a first portion that widens a vertical viewing angle and a second portion that prevents degradation of contrast due to external light, and a protective screen. The second lenticular screen and the protective screen can be replaced by an integrated screen or a composite screen having the characteristics of both. In addition, a pattern may be formed on the rear surface of the Fresnel screen to perform the same function as the first portion.

A high-brightness projection television is provided which includes a screen having a first lens for refracting an incident beam into a convergent beam, a second lens for refracting the beam refracted by the first lens into a divergent beam, and a protection plate for protecting at least the second lens, wherein an optical emission material is included in at least one of the above elements to convert invisible lights included in the incident beam into visible lights. Alternatively, the projection television may include an optical emission layer having the optical emission material between a light source and an image generator such as a liquid crystal display (LCD). Accordingly, vertical and horizontal angles of view are increased and overall brightness of the image is improved.

Brightness improving apparatus for projection television

A hybrid lens and a projection optical system having the hybrid lens are provided. The projection optical system includes a hybrid lens that is positioned along an optical path between a fluorescent surface and a screen onto which light emitted from the fluorescent surface is projected to form an image. The hybrid lens includes a spherical lens and an aspherical lens formed of plastic on at least one surface of the spherical lens. Accordingly, aberration can be corrected to improve image quality.

Hybrid lens and projection optical system including the same

A projection display apparatus with red (R), green (G), and blue (B) monochromatic cathode ray tubes (CRTs) and three projection lenses, disposed in front of the R, G, and B monochromatic CRTs respectively, along with a screen having a predetermined curvature concave in a view direction to control a view distance and focus the light rays projected from the respective projection lenses. The screen includes a Fresnel screen converting the light rays incident from the projection lenses to have predetermined optical directional characteristics in an optical axis direction, and a Lenticular screen, disposed in front of the Fresnel screen and having a curvature corresponding to the Fresnel screen, for forming images from the light rays passing through the Fresnel screen, controlling a view angle, and enhancing an entire screen luminance. The view distance is determined based on a focal length and a curvature radius of the Fresnel screen.

Projection display apparatus with a curved screen

A screen for a projector includes a Fresnel lens which concentrates incident light, a lenticular lens arranged on a front surface of the Fresnel lens and which forms an image by focusing light passing through the Fresnel lens, a protective panel installed on a front surface of the lenticular lens and which protects the lenticular lens, and a reflection reducing portion formed on one surface of the protective panel, wherein the reflection reducing portion reduces reflection of light by diffusely reflecting the light, and wherein the reflection reducing portion includes a core member capable of being emitted externally.
