Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display comprising: a liquid crystal panel assembly with a plurality of pixels; a printed circuit board disposed under the liquid crystal panel assembly; and a plurality of laser diodes disposed on the printed circuit board, wherein the laser diodes are disposed to correspond to substantially respective pixels of the liquid crystal panel assembly, and further wherein each of the laser diodes comprises: a lower distributed Bragg reflector formed on the printed circuit board; an n-type contact layer formed on the lower distributed Bragg reflector; a lower n-type carrier-confining layer and a lower electrode that are formed on the n-type contact layer; a resonant layer formed on the lower n-type carrier-confining layer; an insulating layer that is formed on a predetermined region of the resonant layer; an electric current-confining layer that is formed on the remaining region of the resonant layer; a p-type contact layer formed on the insulating regions and the electric current-confining layer; an upper distributed Bragg reflector formed on a partial portion of the p-type contact layer; and an upper electrode formed on the remaining portion of the p-type contact layer.
