Armitage David, Underwoon Ian, Wu Shin-Tson. Introduction to Microdisplays

John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2006. — 396 p. — ISBN13: 978-0-470-85281-1, ISBN10: 0-470-85281-X.The book covers this commercially important and technologically diverse subject to a depth which will benefit engineers at many levels from practitioners in the field to potential users of microdisplays. The introduction provides a useful review of human factors, specifi cations, display technologies and applications. The second chapter covers all aspects of analog and digital addressing schemes for LCDs, DMDs and OLEDs and the next two discuss refl ective and transmissive backplane technologies. There follow three chapters which deal respectively with transmissive LC microdisplays, refl ective LC micro-displays and LCD assembly and testing. The next two chapters discuss the two important microdisplay technologies other than LCD; micromechanical and emissive (predominantly OLED) devices. The book concludes with two chapters on optical and psychophysical aspects of projection and near-to-eye systems.
