Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make it possible to negate the influence of the next line without changing a liquid crystal material by using such a driving waveform that prevents data pulses from being impressed for at least one line in the data pulses to be impressed. SOLUTION: Two glass substrates are assembled by using a spacer and a UV-curing type adhesive so that the vapor deposition directions of diagonally vapor deposited SiO films are paralleled with each other to assemble an empty liquid crystal cell. Ferroelectric liquid crystals uniformly dispersed with, for example, titanium oxide particulates are injected into the cell gap to obtain a liquid crystal display element. At the time of driving the liquid crystal element, such a driving waveform that prevents the data pulses from being impressed for at least one line in the data pulses to be impressed by the data electrodes is used. In such a case, the time to the next line is made longer by preventing the impression of the data pulses for at least one line on the present line. As a result, the deviation between the transmittance when the circumference is black and the transmittance when the circumference is white decreases.

PURPOSE: To secure the high resolution by placing a condenser device which condenses the incident light in a prescribed size at a position of the light incident side of a wobbling element corresponding to the pixel of an optical element such as a display element or an image pickup element, etc. CONSTITUTION: A liquid crystal display element LCD 2 and a wobbling element 7 including a wobbling liquid crystal element 3 with a micro lens serving as a phase modulation element and a double refraction medium 4 consisting of a transparent substrate like a crystal plate, etc., are successively arranged in the same optical path and along the light traveling direction. An optical lens consisting of a pair of convex lenses 120 and 121 is added between the LCD 2 and the element 7. The pitch P1 of a pixel 115 of the LCD 2 is set larger than the pitch P2 of a pixel 113 of the element 3. Then the focal distances of both lenses are prescribed so that the light 6 emitted from the specific pixel 115 of the LCD 2 can surely be made incident on the pixel 113.

PURPOSE:To enable high-speed wobbling (picture element shifting) and to efficiently attain higher resolution by combining a phase modulation optical element having spacings spacings filled with specific liquid crystals and an optically transparent double refractive medium. CONSTITUTION:This optical device consists of a combination of the phase modulation optical element in which with plural pieces of optically transparent base bodies provided with optically electrodes and oriented films in this order are arranged to face each other apart the prescribed spacings on the electrode and oriented film sides, and in which at least one kind of the liquid crystals selected from among a ferroelectric liquid crystal 3, antiferroelectric liquid crystal and smectic liquid crystal exhibiting an electric gradient effect are injected in the spacings, and the optically transparent double refractive medium 4. By this constitution, the phase of light is changed and the plane of polarization is shifted by the phase modulation optical element and further, incident light is selectively refracted by the double refractive medium 4 and, therefore, the discrete pixels are effectively wobbled. The resolution is thus improved and the image quality is improved as well.
