Light control film having second louvers inclined with respect to first louvers

A light control film comprising:

• a first portion including:
• a first functional substrate, wherein the first functional substrate includes at least one of an optically active layer and a barrier layer;
• and
• a first louver structure micro-replicated directly on the first functional substrate, the first louver comprising a plurality of first louvers defined by grooves in an optically clear cured resin between alternating ribs, wherein each of the plurality of first louvers is at least partially filled with a light absorbing material;
• and
• a second portion laminated to the first portion, the second portion including:
• a second functional substrate disposed distal to the first functional substrate, wherein the second functional substrate includes at least one of an optically active layer and a barrier layer;
• and
• a second louver structure micro-replicated directly on the second functional substrate, the second louver structure comprising a plurality of second louvers defined by grooves in an optically clear cured resin between alternating ribs, wherein each of the plurality of second louvers is at least partially filled with the light absorbing material;
• wherein the plurality of first louvers extend along a first direction and the plurality of second louvers extend along a second direction, and wherein the first direction and the second direction are inclined to each other at an angle that lies within a range from about 70 degrees to about 110 degrees, and wherein the plurality of first louvers and the plurality of second louvers are disposed between the first functional substrate and the second functional substrate and laminated to each other directly by an adhesive layer.
