Display Systems

Commercial auto-stereoscopic display systems have equipped optical lenticular lens sheets in order to realize the function which is able to support two images or views to right and left eyes of viewers. In applications of auto-stereoscopic display, the method of using the lenticular lens sheet, also called time- or spatial-multiplexed method, is first proposed as a patent by Ichinose [1]. The method has more advantages, which includes high luminous performance, movable of eyes position with constant view distance and watchable of multi-viewer. Besides, it can be also easily manufactured to make it very popular. Owing to the superiority, some studies about lenticular lens sheets have been proposed. Berkel et al. [2] have proposed several researches about the method of using lenticular lens sheets on multi-view auto-stereoscopic displays, and he has also proposed that slanted lenticular lens sheets or pixels could be improved the effect of flipped image by boundaries of lens and pixel [3–5]. 2D/3D switchable display is first realized by a method of dual-lenticular lens sheets [6]. Moreover, the method of using lenticular lens sheets has been proposed to be replaced by liquid crystal, LC, lens arrays, [7–9] in order to control viewer distance based on a function of tunable focal length. For the method, some issues of LC lenses should be solved like non-smooth potential in the LC layer and to improve the lens power [10–12].

Sub Wavelength

Using the fact that a sub-wavelength structure exhibits the same thermal expansion coefficient as a micro-lens array, we design a micro-lens super-surface film with regular circular hole-like subwavelength structures to realize the high performances of central highly focusing strength and short focal length. In addition, based on the Fresnel—Kirchhoff diffraction theory, the influences of subwavelength structural period and height on the focusing performance of a micro-lens are analyzed. Furthermore, the finite-difference time-domain method is utilized to optimize the structural parameters. Via direct laser writing and an inductively coupled plasma process, we fabricated a square micro-lens array consisting of a 1000 × 1000 micro-lens unit with a sub-wavelength structure, and the optical focusing performance was measured in the visible light band. Finally, the experimental results indicate that the focal length is decreased to 15 μm, the focal spot central energy is increased by 7.3%, and the light transmission, enhanced via inserting sub-wavelength structures, corresponds to 3%. This proves that the designed micro-lens array with a regular-graded circular hole-like subwavelength structure can achieve central high focusing and a short focal length. This has applications in several fields of wavefront detection and light field imaging systems.
