    Abstract: A liquid crystal display (LCD) comprises a light source; a light diffractor over the light source configured to diffract light received from the light source; a liquid crystal diffraction grating over the light diffractor and between liquid crystal pixel structures comprising a plurality of liquid crystal pixels; the liquid crystal diffraction grating has a changed diffraction index in response to application of a voltage differential across the diffraction grating, and when having the changed diffraction index aligns diffracted light received from the light diffractor into aligned light directed toward the liquid crystal pixel structure. An LCD may comprise a plurality of liquid crystal pixels each comprising a reflective part and a transmissive part, the reflective part of at least some of the plurality of liquid crystal pixels comprising a retroreflector configured to reflect at least some light rays, received from an external light source, toward the external light source.

    Abstract: A beam steering system having first diffraction gratings, each one being associated with a corresponding one of a first plurality of grating vectors disposed substantially in a first plane. The gratings diffract optical energy from any one of a plurality of input directions of resonance to a corresponding one of a plurality of output directions. Second diffraction gratings are associated with a second plurality of grating vectors disposed substantially in a second plane. Each one of the second gratings diffracts optical energy from any one of a plurality of input directions of resonance to a corresponding one of a plurality of output directions. An arrangement directs a beam of optical energy to a selected one of the first gratings along a selected one of the plurality of input directions for the selected one of the first gratings, selected to provide the corresponding one of the output directions from the first gratings to be substantially equal to a selected one of the plurality of input directions for the selected one of the second gratings, thereby providing a selectable set of beam output directions.

    Abstract: A transflective display panel and a display apparatus using the same are provided. The display panel includes a plurality of pixels arranged in a matrix. Each of the pixels includes a plurality of subpixels, and each subpixel within a pixel outputs a different color of light. In addition, each of the subpixels includes a transflective mode region which has a reflection mode region with a diffraction grating and a transmission mode region; a liquid crystal layer which adjusts a transmittance of incident light through electric control; and a sub color filter which transmits light within a wavelength band of the incident light. Because the display panel includes the reflection mode region where the diffraction grating is formed, it can display a high-quality image with good white balance, even while outdoors or under bright illumination.
