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. 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. 
The image quality in displays with matte finish is not as sharp or bright as a glossy screen but it is easier to color-match and calibrate with a printer. It is preferred by those who do a lot of imaging and color correction.
