Abstract

A window member includes a base substrate that includes a display area transmitting a light and a non-display area disposed adjacent to the display area, a color pattern disposed on a surface of the base substrate in the non-display area, and a heat-discharge member that covers the color pattern and absorbs a heat to discharge the heat to an outside.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A window member, comprising:
a base substrate that includes a display area transmitting a light and a non-display area disposed adjacent to the display area;
a color pattern disposed on a surface of the base substrate in the non-display area; and
a heat-discharge member that covers the color pattern and absorbs a heat to discharge the heat to an outside of the window member, wherein
the color pattern is between the base substrate and the heat-discharge member.

2. The window member of claim 1 , wherein the heat-discharge member includes a carbon material.

3. The window member of claim 2 , wherein the heat-discharge member includes a graphene material and is extended in the display area.

4. The window member of claim 2 , wherein the heat-discharge member includes a graphite material or a graphene material and is disposed on the color pattern.

5. The window member of claim 2 , further comprising a first protective layer disposed between the color pattern and the heat-discharge member.

6. The window member of claim 5 , further comprising a second protective layer disposed on the heat-discharge member.

7. The window member of claim 2 , wherein the base substrate includes a concave portion disposed in the non-display area, and the color pattern is disposed in the concave portion.

8. A display apparatus, comprising:
a display panel for displaying an image;
a window member disposed in a direction in which a light exiting from the display panel travels; and
an adhesive layer disposed between the display panel and the window member, the window member including:
a base substrate that includes a display area transmitting a light and a non-display area disposed adjacent to the display area;
a color pattern disposed on a surface of the base substrate in the non-display area to face the display panel; and
a heat-discharge member that covers the color pattern and absorbs a heat to discharge the heat to an outside of the display apparatus, wherein
the color pattern is between the base substrate and the heat-discharge member.

9. The display apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the heat-discharge member includes a carbon material.

10. The display apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the heat-discharge member includes a graphene material and is extended in the display area.

11. The display apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the heat-discharge member includes a graphite material or a graphene material and is disposed on the color pattern.

12. The display apparatus of claim 9 , further comprising a first protective layer disposed between the color pattern and the heat-discharge member.

13. The display apparatus of claim 12 , further comprising a second protective layer disposed on the heat-discharge member.

14. The display apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the base substrate includes a concave portion disposed in the non-display area, and the color pattern is disposed in the concave portion.
