We propose a method for highopticalefficiency three‐dimensional (3D)/ two‐dimensional (2D) convertible integral imaging display. A reflective polarizer can reflect the polarized light which is orthogonal to the transmission axis of the reflective polarizer and transmit the polarized light which is paralleled to the transmission axis of the reflective polarizer. The reflected light can be recycled because of the depolarization property of the diffuser, sothe optical efficienciesfor both 3D and 2D display modesare enhanced. 3D display mode is realized byadopting a pinhole array on a polarizer to generate point light source array. 3D/2D convertible feature is realized by electrically controlling the polarization switcher. In the experiments, the 3D/2D conversion and the improvement of the optical efficiency are demonstrated.
A fast response time, wide viewing angle and single-cell-gap transflective display using a polymer-stabilized blue-phase liquid crystal is proposed. The transmissive region has an in-plane wallshaped electrode while the reflective region has an in-plane trapezoid electrode. The transmissive and reflective regions have similar gamma curves.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
