Light modulator, light source using the light modulator, display apparatus using the light modulator, and method for driving the light modulator

摘要: A light modulator is comprised of two unit devices each using surface plasmon generated at the interface between thin metal films respectively formed on prisms and an electro-optical material, a mirror. Both transmitted due to absorption re-radiation, reflected arising from are made into outgoing light, incident next device, or Consequently, all beams can be utilized as final with no loss light. Further, color spatially divided, still further, it also temporally divided by changing wavelength voltage. As result, original both almost combining so configured re-radiate absorbed mirror, thus utilizing
