摘要:
A recording apparatus comprising a copying system for projecting the image of an original document onto a photosensitive member to form an electrostatic latent image thereon, and a printing system for forming an electrostatic latent image on the photosensitive member in response to image information received from a data processing machine. This recording apparatus is operable in a printing mode and a copying mode. In the printing mode, recording paper carrying an image printed in accordance with the image information is either discharged outwardly of the recording apparatus or forwarded to an automatic document feeder to serve as an original document or documents. In the copying mode, the or each original document is copied a selected number of times as in any conventional copying machine.

A method of and a device for driving a light shutter having an electrooptical effect to polarize an incident light by applying an electric field to the light shutter. When the light shutter is made activate, an excessive electric field in addition to a half-wave electric field which is a specific one to polarize an incident light at 90.degree. in the static characteristics of the light shutter is applied to the light shutter initially, and subsequently, the half-wave electric field only is applied to the light shutter. To discharge the electric charge accumulated in the light shutter, no voltage is applied to electrodes each of which is provided on the wall of the light shutter so as to oppose each other subsequent to the application of the electric field until the next application thereof.

A display apparatus comprising a modulator sandwiched between two polarizers. The modulator includes a plurality of light transmitting windows arranged in a matrix on a substrate having an electrooptical effect. Each window is associated with an electrode pair for forming an electric field across the window. One scanning line electrically interconnects first electrodes in the electrode pairs of the windows arranged in a row. One signal line electrically interconnects second electrodes in the electrode pairs of the windows arranged in a column. A scanning circuit sequentially and individually electrifies the scanning lines. A signal circuit is operable in response to a synchronizing signal received from the scanning circuit and display information for electrifying one of the signal lines connected to the electrode pair of a selected window for forming an electric field. An electric field control circuit provides zero potential difference in the electrode pairs of the other windows than the selected window.

A light shutter means with a plurality of shutter elements formed of an electro-optical material, the elements being defined independently and three-dimensionally on an upper face of a substantially polyhedral chip and aligned in at least two arrays. Each shutter element has a shutter window for selective light transmission therethrough. A common electrode for the shutter elements extends over opposing faces of the shutter element arrays and to at least one side face of the chip. Each opposing pair of the elements in the one array and in the other array are disposed such that their shutter windows are overlapped with each other as viewed from a direction normal to the direction of element array extension on the chip's upper face.
