Filter for display apparatus

Abstract

A filter for a display apparatus is placed in front of a display panel, wherein CIE chromaticity coordinates of the filter under a standard of a D65 light source have values of −2.0≦a*≦2.0 and −2.0≦b*≦2.0. The CIE chromaticity coordinates of the filter under the standard of the D65 light source have a value of 60≦L*≦80. The colorants include a first colorant absorbing 380 nm to 480 nm wavelength light, a second colorant absorbing 450 nm to 550 nm wavelength light, and a third colorant absorbing 560 nm to 620 nm wavelength light. The first to third colorants can be contained in at least one of a color compensating layer, a low-refraction layer having a refractive index of 1.5 or less, an external light shielding layer, a hard coating layer and an adhesive layer.
