Abstract
According to an aspect, a display device includes: a coated polarization layer configured to absorb light linearly polarized in a second polarization direction perpendicular to a first polarization direction; an optical sheet configured to reflect light linearly polarized in the first polarization direction and transmit light linearly polarized in the second polarization direction; a front panel disposed between the coated polarization layer and the optical sheet and capable of changing a polarization direction of incident light into another polarization direction in accordance with a voltage applied to the front panel; and a display panel overlapping with the front panel with a polarization plate interposed therebetween, the polarization plate transmitting light linearly polarized in the second polarization direction to the optical sheet.
