## Claims

### Claim 1

A display device comprising:
a display panel; and
a light control layer on the display panel and comprising:
a base portion,
a coloring agent having a maximum absorption wavelength in a wavelength range of about 580 nm to about 600 nm, and

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The display device of claim 1, wherein the desiccant is in a first state before absorbing moisture and in a second state after absorbing the moisture, and
a color of the desiccant in the first state is the same as a color of the desiccant in the second state.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The display device of claim 1, wherein the desiccant transmits visible light.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The display device of claim 1, wherein the light control layer comprises about 0.01 wt % to about 5.00 wt % of the desiccant with respect to a total content of the light control layer.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The display device of claim 1, wherein the desiccant comprises at least one selected from CaO, MgO, CaCl2, CaCO3, CaZrO3, CaTiO3, SiO2, Ca2SiO4, MgCl2, P2O5, Li2O, Na2O, BaO, Li2SO4, Na2SO4, CaSO4, MgSO4, CoSO4, Ga2(SO4)3, Ti(SO4)2, NiSO4, SrCl2, YCl3, CuCl2, CsF, TaF5, NbF5, LiBr, CaBr2, CeBr3, SeBr4, VBr3, MgBr2, BaI2, MgI2, Ba(ClO4)2, and Mg(ClO4)2.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The display device of claim 1, wherein the coloring agent comprises at least one selected from an anthraquinone-based compound, a phthalocyanine-based compound, an azo-based compound, a perylene-based compound, a xanthene-based compound, a diimmonium-based compound, a dipyrromethene-based compound, a tetraazaporphyrin-based compound, a porphyrin-based compound, a squarylium-based compound, an oxazine-based compound, a triarylmethane-based compound, and a cyanine-based compound.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The display device of claim 1, wherein the light control layer comprises about 0.01 wt % to about 5.00 wt % of the coloring agent with respect to a total content of the light control layer.

### Claim 8 (depends on 1)

The display device of claim 1, wherein the coloring agent has a higher hydrophobicity than the desiccant.

### Claim 9 (depends on 1)

The display device of claim 1, further comprising a barrier wall,
wherein the display panel comprises:
a base layer; and
a display element layer on the base layer and comprising a light emitting area and a non-light-emitting area, and
wherein the barrier wall is on the display element layer, is covered by the light control layer, and overlaps the non-light-emitting area.

### Claim 10 (depends on 1)

The display device of claim 1, further comprising a sensor layer between the display panel and the light control layer,
wherein the sensor layer is directly on the display panel.

### Claim 11 (depends on 1)

The display device of claim 1, wherein the base portion comprises a base resin comprising at least one selected from an acrylate monomer and an epoxy monomer.

### Claim 12 (depends on 11)

The display device of claim 11, wherein the base resin comprises:
