Color filters, sequencers and displays using color selective light modulators

摘要: A high brightness color selective light modulator (CSLM) (10) formed by a polarization (100) positioned between two retarder stacks (110, 120). The changes the apparent orientation of one stack to other, in first switching state modulator, 120) cooperate filtering spectrum input light, and second complement each yielding neutral transmission spectrum. Two or more CSLM stages (1420-1430) can be used series for providing independent control primary color. One preferred embodiment eliminates internal polarizers stages, thereby an additive common-path full-color display with only (1450-1460). Hybrid filters (2225) utilize CSLMs (1420-1430), combination other active passive filters. arranged multi-pixel array (2230), implemented as filter arrays, using patterned instead modulators.
