    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a full color liquid crystal display using a photoluminescence(PL) fiber. SOLUTION: New architecture simplifies an LCD manufacture process by substituting a photolithography step for color filter manufacture to a fiber spinning technique at low cost and with high throughput. The new LCD architecture has the power efficiency higher than a conventional LCD. Following structures are included in the three structures of the LCD device using a photoluminescence(PL) fiber array. The first structure having the PL fiber array located behind an LC shutter (to a user), the second structure having the PL fiber array located on the LC shutter, and the third structure where the PL fiber array in located in an LC cell outside. In one of the structures of these, the fiber not only emits light, but performs the polarization of incident light.
