Abstract:
A display device, comprising:an array of first optical devices disposed in a light path for spatially separating angularly separated light into color components; a pixel array comprising a plurality of pixels, each pixel comprising a plurality of subpixels and each pixel receiving each of the color components through a sub-pixel, each sub-pixel for controlling transmitted light intensity therethrough, wherein a pitch of the pixel array is equal to a pitch of the array of first optical devices; a black matrix in operative relationship with the sub-pixels, the black matrix including apertures for receiving the color components; and a microstructured layer disposed in the light path of the apertures of the black matrix and receiving light from the array of first optical devices, the microstructured layer including faceted surfaces to redirect laterally shifted color components toward a display normal of the display device.
