Study on Display Characteristics of Color Display Using Tuneable Fabry-Perot Interferometer

Display characteristics of color displays using the Fabry-Perot interferometer (FPI) whose cavity length is controllable were analyzed theoretically. Transmission and reflection type displays with the structure of FPI-color filter (red, green and blue)-white light source and transmission type one with the structure of FPI-color filter-three band spectrum fluorescent lamp were studied. The last type of display was expected to have higher contrast and more bright display compared with the other two types.
