摘要： A piezoelectric shutter is arranged in a comb pattern and presents a core. The comb is provided with at least one tooth constituting the shutter, the bore being arranged with elevation allowing the displacement of the shutter by the piezoelectric effect. The device is remarkable in that it comprises at least one bimorph arranged on the support, capable of being raised with respect to the support by the piezoelectric effect.

摘要： A display system having a greyscale control arrangement for controlling light output from a plurality of optical fibers includes a light source effective for supplying a high brightness light output to the input ends of the plurality of optical fibers. A plurality of piezoelectric shutter members are disposed adjacent the light delivery ends of the optical fibers and are effective for controlling the delivery of light output through the optical fibers as a function of the on or off condition thereof. The delivery ends of the optical fibers are disposed relative to one another so as to form a plurality of display pixels. At least two of the optical fibers are combined to form each of the pixels. The diameters of the at least two optical fibers that make up each pixel are different thereby allowing that at least four different greyscale levels can be achieved for each display pixel.
