Matte display
(Redirected from User:Panjasan/Matte-Display)
A matte display is an electronic display with a matte surface. Matte displays feature a light-scattering antireflection layer, which reduces reflectivity at the cost of decreased contrast and color intensity under dimly lit conditions.[1] If the steep nanostructures are used – etched in the surface – a matte display can achieve an effect that is similar to continuous refraction index reduction.[2]
The image quality in displays with matte finish is not as sharp or bright as a glossy screen but is easier to color-match and calibrate with a printer.[3]
