We propose a multi-view 2D/3D switchable display by using cylindrical liquid crystal (LC) lens array with a low operating voltage and fast response time. The cylindrical LC lens array is composed of three parts: the LC layer, a top-plane indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode, and bottom periodic strip ITO electrodes. In the voltage-off state, the cylindrical LC lens array is equivalent to a transparent glass substrate and the viewers can see a clear 2D image. In the 3D mode, the cylindrical LC lens array can be used as a cylindrical lens array under a suitable operating voltage. As a result, the 2D and 3D images can be switched according to the state of the cylindrical LC lens array. The experimental result shows that the 2D/3D switchable display with the cylindrical LC lens array has a wider viewing angle, has no moiré pattern, and is much thinner compared to the other 2D/3D switchable display devices.

The Individual

An electrically tunable-focusing liquid crystal (LC) microlens array exhibiting a wide-range tunable focal length is proposed. The lower substrate has strip indium tin oxide (ITO) electrodes, the upper substrate has periodic ITO electrodes with a certain gap coated on the inner surface., and an LC microlens is generated between the two strip electrodes. For each LC microlens, the gap between the top planar electrodes is directly above the center of the microlens. Unlike the conventional LC lens, the individual LC microlens is not coated with ITO electrodes on the central part of its upper and lower substrates, which helps to maintain the LC’s horizontal orientation. In the voltage-off state, the focal length of the microlens array is infinity because of the homogeneous LC alignment. At a given operating voltage, an ideal gradient refractive index distribution is induced over the homogeneous LC layer, which leads to the focusing effect. The simulation result shows that the focal length of the LC microlens could be gradually drawn to 0.381 mm with a change of voltage.
