In an LCD apparatus having an optical member, the optical member has a base body having a light incident surface and a light emitting surface faced the light incident surface. A first resin layer is formed on the light emitting surface and a light diffusing pattern is uniformly formed on the first resin layer so as to diffuse a first light and emit a second light. Accordingly, the LCD apparatus can improve display quality and can be fabricated in low-cost manufacture. Also, since the light diffusing pattern is formed with a curable material, the light diffusing pattern can have various shapes and superior reproducibility.

What is claimed is: 1. An optical member comprising: a base body having a light incident surface for receiving a first light and a light emitting surface for emitting the first light, the base body being substantially free of particles; and a light diffusing layer having a first resin layer disposed on the light emitting surface and a light diffusing pattern disposed on the first resin layer so as to diffuse the first light emitted from the light emitting surface and to emit a second light, wherein the light diffusing layer is substantially free of particles and makes direct contact with the base body; wherein the light diffusing pattern disposed on the first resin layer includes a substantially hemispherical shape. 2. The optical member of claim 1, wherein the base body is heat-treated so as to prevent wrinkling of the base body. 3. The optical member of claim 2, wherein an expansion ratio of the base body while the base body is heat-treated is identical to a contraction ratio of the base body while the base body is cooled. 4. The optical member of claim 1, wherein the first resin layer comprises an ultraviolet-curable material. 5. The optical member of claim 1, wherein the base body comprises an expansion ratio and a contraction ratio identical to those of the first resin layer. 6. The optical member of claim 1, further comprising a second resin layer disposed on the light incident surface and a layer having a protrusion disposed on the second resin layer so as to prevent the second resin layer from making contact with an adjacent member. 7. The optical member of claim 6, wherein the second resin layer comprises an ultraviolet-curable material. 8. The optical member of claim 6, wherein the base body comprises an expansion ratio and a contraction ratio identical to those of the second resin layer. 9. The optical member of claim 6, wherein the second resin layer has a plurality of protrusions spaced apart from each other. 10. The optical member of claim 6, wherein the protrusion is part of a protrusion pattern formed on the second resin layer. 11. The optical member of claim 1, wherein the first resin layer is a thin film. 12. A method of fabricating an optical member, comprising: heat-treating a base body to prevent the base body from wrinkling, wherein the base body is substantially free of particles; forming a substantially flat first resin layer directly on a light emitting surface of the base body, the base body having a light incident surface for receiving a first light and the light emitting surface for emitting the first light; forming a light diffusing pattern on the first resin layer so as to diffuse the first light emitted from the light emitting surface and to emit a second light, the light diffusing pattern having a substantially hemispherical shape; and curing the first resin layer. 13. The method of claim 12, wherein forming the light diffusing pattern comprises rolling a roller on which a transfer pattern having a reversed shape with respect to the light diffusing pattern is formed along the first resin layer so as to form the light diffusing pattern on the first resin layer. 14. The method of claim 12, wherein curing the first resin layer comprises irradiating an ultraviolet-ray onto the first resin layer formed on the light emitting surface so as to cure the first resin layer. 15. The method of claim 12, further comprising: forming a second resin layer on the light incident surface; forming a protrusion pattern on the second resin layer; and curing the second resin layer. 16. The method of claim 15, wherein curing the second resin layer comprises irradiating an ultraviolet-ray onto the second resin layer. 17. The method of claim 15, wherein the forming of the protrusion comprises forming a plurality of protrusions spaced apart from each other. 18. The method of claim 12, wherein the first resin layer is a thin film. 19. A method of fabricating an optical member having a base body that diffuses a first light incident Through a light incident surface thereof and emits a second light through a light emitting surface thereof, comprising: heat-treating the base body to prevent the wrinkling of the base body, wherein the base body is substantially free of particles; forming a first substantially flat curable resin layer directly on the light emitting surface; forming a second substantially flat curable resin layer on the light incident surface; forming a light diffusing pattern on the first curable resin layer so as to diffuse the first light emitted form the light emitting surface and to emit the second light, the light diffusing pattern having a substantially hemispherical shape; forming a protrusion pattern on the second curable resin layer so as to prevent the second curable resin layer from making contact with an adjacent member; and curing the first and second curable resin layers. 20. The method of claim 19, wherein the first curable resin layer is a thin film. 21. The method of claim 19, wherein the forming of the protrusion comprises forming a plurality of protrusions spaced apart from each other. 22. An LCD apparatus comprising: a light supply module for generating a first light; an optical member including a base that is substantially free of particles having a light incident surface for receiving the first light and a light emitting surface, a first resin layer formed on the light emitting surface as a thin film having a substantially flat surface, and a light diffusing layer having a light diffusing pattern formed on the first resin layer, wherein the light diffusing layer Is substantially free of particles for diffusing the first light emitted from the light emitting surface and emitting a second light, and wherein the light diffusing layer makes direct contact with the base, and wherein the light diffusing pattern has a substantially hemispherical shape; a second resin layer formed on the light incident surface; a protrusion pattern formed on the second resin layer to prevent the second resin layer from making contact with an adjacent member; and an LCD panel assembly disposed at a pathway of the second light for changing the second light into an image light having image information. 23. The LCD apparatus of claim 22, wherein protrusions of the protrusion pattern are spaced apart from each other.
