Abstract

A display apparatus includes a first substrate, a pixel structure, a second substrate, and an anti-reflection structure. The pixel structure is disposed on the first substrate, and has an active element and a pixel electrode electrically connected to the active element. The second substrate is disposed opposite to the first substrate. The anti-reflection structure is disposed on the second substrate and is located between the first substrate and the second substrate. The anti-reflection structure includes a first insulating layer and a metal layer. The first insulating layer is disposed on the second substrate. The metal layer is disposed on the first insulating layer. The first insulating layer is located between the second substrate and the metal layer. The first insulating layer has an opening, the metal layer has an opening, and the opening of the first insulating layer and the opening of the metal layer overlap with the pixel electrode.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . A display apparatus, comprising:
a first substrate; a pixel structure disposed on the first substrate, and comprising an active element and a pixel electrode electrically connected to the active element; a second substrate disposed opposite to the first substrate; and an anti-reflection structure disposed on the second substrate, and being located between the first substrate and the second substrate, wherein the anti-reflection structure comprises:
a first insulating layer disposed on the second substrate; and
a metal layer disposed on the first insulating layer, wherein the first insulating layer is located between the second substrate and the metal layer, the first insulating layer has an opening, the metal layer has an opening, and the opening of the first insulating layer and the opening of the metal layer overlap with the pixel electrode.

2 . The display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the opening of the first insulating layer and the opening of the metal layer are substantially aligned.

3 . The display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein a material of the first insulating layer comprises molybdenum oxide or silicon-rich oxide, and a material of the metal layer comprises molybdenum.

4 . The display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the anit-reflection structure further comprises:
a second insulating layer disposed on the metal layer, wherein the metal layer is located between the first insulating layer and the second insulating layer.

5 . The display apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein the second insulating layer has an opening, and the opening of the second insulating layer overlaps with the opening of the metal layer.

6 . The display apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the opening of the second insulating layer and the opening of the metal layer are substantially aligned.

7 . The display apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein a material of one of the first insulating layer and the second insulating layer comprises silicon nitride, a material of the other one of the first insulating layer and the second insulating layer comprises silicon-rich oxide, and a material of the metal layer comprises molybdenum.

8 . The display apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein a material of the first insulating layer comprises silicon-rich oxide, a material of the metal layer comprises molybdenum, and a material of the second insulating layer comprises silicon-rich oxide.

9 . The display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein a thickness of the metal layer is greater than a thickness of the first insulating layer.

10 . The display apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a protection layer disposed on the anti-reflection structure, and being located between the anti-reflection structure and the first substrate, wherein the protection layer is further disposed in the opening of the first insulating layer and the opening of the metal layer.
