Abstract

The present subject matter relates to display devices. In an example implementation, a display device comprises a display unit having color pixels and tracks of a black matrix covering spaces between the color pixels. The display device also comprises a display control layer over the display unit. The display control layer has longitudinal channels separated by transparent substrates and overlapping the tracks of the black matrix in one direction. The longitudinal channels comprise a first set of channels filled with undoped bi-stable liquid crystals to control a view angle of a display from the display unit, and a second set of channels filled with doped bi-stable liquid crystals to control absorption of blue/ultraviolet (UV) light from the display unit.
