Abstract:
An apparatus for exposing a photosensitive material, said photosensitive material having a light receiving surface and being exposed by radiation impinging on said light receiving surface, said apparatus comprising:an elongated coherent fiber optic faceplate substrate having a substantially planar light receiving surface oppositely spaced apart with respect to a substantially planar light emitting surface, said fiber optic faceplate comprising a plurality of individual glass fibers, each of which has a given characteristic dimension; and an individually addressable Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED)â€”Color Filter structure, said structure disposed on the light receiving surface of said fiber optic faceplate substrate, and said structure comprising OLED elements and color filter elements, said OLED elements and color filter elements having characteristic dimensions which are substantially the same to each other and much larger than said given characteristic dimension of said glass fibers so that light transmitted through each of said color filter elements illuminates several glass fibers, whereby alignment between color filter elements and individual glass fibers is not necessary.
