The display apparatus includes: a light source configured to emit light having a wavelength less than or equal to a predetermined level; a waveguide plate having a slope pattern that allows the light emitted from the light source to be output to a left side or a right side about a vertical direction of an optical axis of the light source; and a display panel comprising a plurality of pixels, each of the plurality of pixels comprising a white sub pixel configured to transmit the light output from the waveguide plate. | 2018-06-07 |
20180157103 | DISPLAY DEVICE - A display device includes a substrate including first, second, third, and fourth pixel areas, first, second, and third color filters at the first, second, and third pixel areas on the substrate, respectively, and a fourth color filter at the fourth pixel area on the substrate, the fourth color filter having a plurality of holes, wherein the plurality of holes includes a first hole, a second hole, and a third hole adjacent to each other, and wherein a first imaginary straight line passing through a center of the first hole and a center of the second hole has an angle in a range from about 20 degrees to about 80 degrees with respect to a second imaginary straight line passing through the center of the first hole and a center of the third hole. | 2018-06-07 |
