Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A display device includes a plurality of pixels each including a light emitting region; and a light blocking layer provided on a side of the plurality of pixels on which light is output. In each of the plurality pixels, the light blocking layer has a plurality of openings allowing light from the light emitting region to be output. In one embodiment, in the light blocking layer, the openings adjacent to each other may be located line-symmetrically. In one embodiment, in the light blocking layer, the openings adjacent to each other may be located point-symmetrically.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1 . A display device, comprising: a plurality of pixels each including a light emitting region; and a light blocking layer provided on a side of the plurality of pixels on which light is output; wherein in each of the plurality pixels, the light blocking layer has a plurality of openings located above the light emitting region and allowing light from the light emitting region to be output. 2 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein in the light blocking layer, the openings adjacent to each other are located line-symmetrically. 3 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein in the light blocking layer, the openings adjacent to each other are located point-symmetrically. 4 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the openings are generally quadrangular. 5 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the openings are polygonal. 6 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the openings are generally circular. 7 . The display device according to claim 1 , further comprising a bank demarcating the light emitting region of each of the plurality of pixels, wherein a region demarcated by the bank has a size approximately equal to, or larger than, a total size of the openings. 8 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the light blocking layer has a plurality of second openings each located in a non-light emitting region between the plurality of pixels.
