Abstract
An optical device and an optical panel are provided. The optical device including an optical layer whose optical axes or light absorption axes are shifted continuously is provided. The optical device can be used to adjust characteristics of light in electronic devices such as display devices, or can be used for various applications requiring a continuous change in an optical axis or light absorption axis, including use of windows or shades of buildings or automobiles.
Claims11
An optical device comprising an optical layer comprising a shift region, of which optical axes or light absorption axes are changed according to one direction, and of which an average rate (V) of change of the optical axes or light absorption axes defined by to the following Equation 1 is greater than 0 and not more than 5:
- V=360/P [Equation 1]
- wherein V represents the average rate of change, and P represents a pitch of the shift region.
