  • Patent number: 8026653
    Abstract: A display device provided with a screen, comprising: an optical filter having a blind sheet that comprises a plurality of semitranslucent layers having translucence arranged side-by-side extending in a horizontal direction and having a predetermined thickness in a vertical direction, and a plurality of transparent layers which are disposed between the semitranslucent layers and which are of a higher translucency than that of the semitranslucent layers and of a greater thickness than the thickness of the semitranslucent layers; and an adhesive member for sticking the optical filter to the screen, wherein the ratio of the transmittance of a limit angle of the screen with respect to the transmittance of the optical filter at the center of the screen is at least 0.10 and not more than 0.50.

  • Patent number: 6686896
    Abstract: A plasma display panel for color displaying is provided which is so formed that it is possible to improve the contrast and color purity of the display panel while at the same time controlling the brightness drop to a minimum level. In particular, it is possible to effectively inhibit a contrast drop usually caused due to neon emission. In practice, an optical filter capable of attenuating light components each having a wavelength within a range of 560-590 nm is provided on the front side of the plasma display panel. Such plasma display panel includes an electric discharge space containing a discharge gas mainly comprising neon gas and xenon gas.
