Patent ID: 8553163

Claim:
A display apparatus comprising: a display panel having at least one of a matrix of pixels and a black matrix (BM); and a phase-delaying layer disposed on the display panel, the phase-delaying layer including: a base substrate, and a first light-changing pattern (P 1 ) and a second light-changing pattern (P 2 ), wherein at least one of the first and second light-changing patterns (P 1 , P 2 ) is patterned in a self aligning manner relative to at least one of the matrix of pixels and the black matrix (BM) of the display panel; wherein the base substrate is disposed above the display panel, wherein the first pattern (P 1 ) is formed on top of the base substrate, the first pattern (P 1 ) is structured to provide a corresponding first phase-delaying effect to visible light passing therethrough, and the first pattern (P 1 ) includes a respective first cured liquid crystal, wherein the second pattern (P 2 ) is disposed adjacent to the first pattern (P 1 ) and the second pattern (P 2 ) is structured to provide a corresponding second phase-delaying effect to visible light passing therethrough, the second phase-delaying effect being different from the first phase-delaying effect, the second pattern (P 2 ) including a respective second cured liquid crystal.
