Abstract:
Disclosed are an illumination unit having an optical system with improved aberration and a holographic three-dimensional image display device. The illumination unit includes: a coherent light source; an optical device for projection which focuses light emitted from the coherent light source; and a holographic optical device which is arranged between the coherent light source and the optical device for projection and has a coherent pattern formed to diffract the light emitted from the coherent light source to provide the diffracted light to the optical device for projection. The coherent pattern of the holographic optical device may include reverse aberration information which can offset aberration of the optical device for projection.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a display including an electro-wetting prism array. The display according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a 2D display providing an image using light from a light source; a prism array; and an optical element increasing refractive power of light transmitted through itself, wherein refractive power of one or more prisms is controlled in the prism array in real time. In the display, the optical element may be formed at the front or the back of the prism array. The optical element is one of a group consisting of a convex lens, a Fresnel lens, a holographic optical element (HOE), a diffractive optical element (DOE), a second electro-wetting prism array, a liquid crystal lens, and an optical lens which acts as a lens. The convex lens may be a variable focus lens.
Abstract:
Disclosed are an optical addressing space light modulator which is divided into segments, a holographic 3D image display device thereof, and a method thereof. The holographic 3D image display device comprises: a record light source, an EASLM, a reproduction light source, an OASLM, a scanning optical unit, and a Fourier lens. The record light source emits a record beam. The EASLM modulates the record beam according to the hologram information which is divided into a plurality of spaces. The reproduction light source emits a reproduction beam. The OASLM comprises the segments which modules the reproduction beam according to the hologram information of the record beam by collecting the record beam modulated by the EASLM. The scanning optical unit transmits the record beam to a position which corresponds to the segments of the OASLM. The Fourier lens generates a 3D image by focusing the reproduction beam in a predetermined space.
Abstract:
A complex spatial light modulator and a holographic 3D image display device having the same are disclosed. The disclosed complex spatial light modulator can simultaneously modulate the phase and amplitude of light by including: a spatial light modulator which modulates the phase or the amplitude of light; and a light combiner which modulates the amplitude of light by a pair of lens arrays and a grating arranged in between the pair of lens arrays.
