DISPLAY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18044113 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE

The abstract describes a display device with a stacked structure including a display panel and a light modulation portion.

• The light modulation portion consists of a first substrate, a refractive index variable material layer, a light modulation microstructure, an electrode layer, and a second substrate.
• The refractive index variable material layer, light modulation microstructure, and electrode layer are all positioned between the first and second substrates.
• The electrode layer contains at least one electrode layer with electrodes in the same layer but separated from each other.
• The light modulation microstructure and electrode layer are located on opposite sides of the refractive index variable material layer, or they are both on the same side of the material layer.

Potential Applications: - This technology could be used in high-resolution displays for electronic devices. - It may find applications in augmented reality and virtual reality systems. - The display device could be utilized in medical imaging equipment for enhanced visualization.

Problems Solved: - Provides improved light modulation for better display quality. - Offers a more efficient and compact design for display devices. - Enhances the overall performance and functionality of display panels.

Benefits: - Higher image quality and resolution. - Energy-efficient operation. - Compact and thin form factor for various applications.

Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Display Technology for High-Resolution Applications This technology could be commercialized for use in smartphones, tablets, laptops, and other electronic devices requiring high-quality displays. The market implications include increased demand for devices with superior display capabilities, especially in the consumer electronics sector.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the refractive index variable material layer contribute to the performance of the display device? 2. What are the potential cost implications of implementing this advanced display technology in commercial products?
