1. A polarization compensation film comprising:
- a polarization prism film dividing an incident natural light wave into an ordinary wave with a first polarization state, and an extraordinary wave with a second polarization state that progresses in a direction inclined relative to the ordinary wave; and
a phase difference film changing the second polarization state of the extraordinary wave incident from the polarization prism film into the first polarization state.

Abstract
A display panel assembly includes a display panel, a first polarizing plate disposed over the display panel, a second polarizing plate disposed under the display panel, and a polarization compensation film disposed over the first polarizing plate. The polarization compensation film includes a polarization prism film and a phase difference film. The polarization prism film divides a natural light wave into an ordinary wave with a first polarization state, and an extraordinary wave with a second polarization state. The phase difference film changes the second polarization state of the extraordinary wave into the first polarization state.
