Digital Micro Hinge (DMH) Based Display Pixels

Journal article, 2010

Using concepts from thin-film optics we hereby present a different design for a potentially high performance display system. The system's pixel design is centered around the selective reflections and transmissions of well defined and constructed thin films on specific substrates. By computing the relevant parameters for specific thin films that can reflect and transmit only Red, Green and Blue light and marrying the result to an RGB LED backlight system a rather unique display system emerges which we termed the Digital Micro Hinge Display (DMH).
