Light guide plate stamp and method of manufacturing the same

Номер: US20120006090A1
Принадлежит: SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS CO LTD

A stamp includes a metal supporting layer, a pattern forming layer and an adhesive layer. The metal supporting layer has a first thermal conductivity. The pattern forming layer is disposed on the metal supporting layer and has a surface with a molding pattern formed thereon. The adhesive layer is disposed between the metal supporting layer and the pattern forming layer to couple the pattern forming layer to the metal supporting layer, and has a second thermal conductivity lower than the first thermal conductivity. Thus, strength of the stamp may be improved, and deformation of the stamp during the process of manufacturing a light guide plate may be reduced or prevented.

DISPLAY DEVICE CAPABLE OF CHANGING LUMINANCE DEPENDING ON OPERATING FREQUENCY

Номер: US20190180695A1
Принадлежит:

A display device includes a display panel including gate lines, data lines, and pixels individually connected to a corresponding gate line and data line, a gate driver driving the gate lines, a data driver driving the data lines, and a driving controller. The driving controller receives, from an external source, first image signals and a variable frequency signal indicating an operation frequency (frame rate) for the display device. The driving controller converts the first image signals to second image signals by adding a compensation value corresponding to the operation frequency to the first image signals, and outputs the second image signals to the data driver. Embodiments may compensate for luminance reduction/variation and reduce image artifacts that otherwise occur due to variable frequency operation. An alternative embodiment dynamically controls an amount of light output from a backlight according to the variable frequency signal. 1. A display device comprising:a display panel comprising a plurality of gate lines, a plurality of data lines, and a plurality of pixels individually connected to a corresponding gate line among the gate lines and a corresponding data line among the data lines;a gate driver configured to drive the gate lines;a data driver configured to drive the data lines; and receive from an external source, first image signals, a control signal, and a variable frequency signal indicating an operation frequency;', 'control the gate driver based on the control signal;', 'convert the first image signals to second image signals by adding a compensation value corresponding to the operation frequency to the first image signals; and', 'output the second image signals to the data driver., 'a driving controller configured to2. The display device of claim 1 , wherein claim 1 , when the operation frequency indicated by the variable frequency signal is lower than a reference frequency claim 1 , the compensation value has a first value claim 1 , and when ...
