Optical member and display device including the same
First Claim
1. An optical member comprising:
- a light guide plate including a surface disposed on a plane defined by a first direction and a second direction crossing the first direction;
a low refractive index pattern disposed on the surface of the light guide plate and including an opening for exposing the surface of the light guide plate;
a wavelength conversion layer disposed on the low refractive index pattern; and
a passivation layer disposed on the wavelength conversion layer and configured to cover a side surface of the wavelength conversion layer and a side surface of the low refractive index pattern at at least one side portion,wherein;
the low refractive index pattern has a lower index of refraction than the light guide plate; and
a ratio of an area occupied by the low refractive index pattern to an area of the surface of the light guide plate decreases in the first direction.

Abstract
An optical member including a light guide plate including a surface disposed on a plane defined by a first direction and a second direction crossing the first direction, a low refractive index pattern disposed on the surface of the light guide plate and including an opening for exposing the surface of the light guide plate, a wavelength conversion layer disposed on the low refractive index pattern, and a passivation layer disposed on the wavelength conversion layer and covering a side surface of the wavelength conversion layer and a side surface of the low refractive index pattern at least one side portion. The low refractive index pattern has a lower index of refraction than the light guide plate, and a ratio of an area occupied by the low refractive index pattern to an area of the surface of the light guide plate decreases in the first direction.
