摘要： A light from a laser light source (11) is collected at a position of a slit (125a) in a vertical direction by a first optical system (12a) to form an intermediate image which is long in a horizontal direction corresponding to an arrangement direction of light modulator elements. An undesired light such as side lobes which appear on the both sides of the intermediate image in the vertical direction is blocked by a slit (125a) and the intermediate image is reformed by a second optical system (12b), to direct a liner illumination light onto the spatial light modulator (13). Thus, in a state where moving ribbons are sagged and first order diffracted lights are emitted in a light modulator element, it is possible to prevent a zeroth order light from being emitted from both end portions of ribbons, to thereby enhance contrast of the signal light.

摘要： Provided are a laser module allowing direct light modulation and a laser display employing the laser module. The laser module may include a semiconductor chip, a Volume Bragg Grating (VBG), a pump laser and a non-linear optical element. The semiconductor chip includes an active layer generating light of primary wavelength and a reflective layer providing the generated light to a cavity and reflecting the light within the cavity. The VBG may output light repeatedly reflected between the reflective layer and the VBG. The non-linear optical element disposed outside a cavity between the semiconductor chip and the VBG may convert the light of a first wavelength emitted from the active layer into light of a second wavelength different from the first wavelength. The laser module having the above-mentioned construction uses an external cavity laser and a non-linear optical element to achieve direct light modulation.

摘要： The invention is directed to a solid-state projection device incorporating a light source, modulator, and control circuitry on a single chip. For example, projection device may include several sets of VCSELs, each associated with a set of MEMs mirrors and coupled to a control circuitry. The device may also include various Pyrex layers for sealing and angling layers. The device may further include detectors associated with the light source. These detectors may be useful in determining the shape and location of the projection surface, building a gesture interface, and determining the operability of proxels. The invention is also directed to methods for using the device for manipulating the image, producing zoom, masking, reverse images, positioning, and keystone correction, among others. The invention may be used in projection display devices, portable display devices, heads-up displays, retinal displays, rear and front projection displays, and other display applications.
