Patent number: 7432026Abstract: A method of manufacturing a dichroic filter array is provided and comprises forming a first dichroic filter material layer on a substrate, and then forming a patterned photoresist layer on the first dichroic filter material layer. The exposed portion of the first dichroic filter material layer is removed so as to form a plurality of first dichroic filter units. A second dichroic filter material layer is formed on the substrate and the patterned photoresist layer. The patterned photoresist layer and the second dichroic filter material layer located on the patterned photoresist layer are removed, and the second dichroic filter material layer between the first dichroic filter units are transformed into a plurality of second dichroic filter units. By using etching process and the lift-off process to simultaneously remove redundant dichroic filter material and the photoreisit layer, the multi-chroic filter array device with a relatively small volume can be rapidly produced.Type: GrantFiled: May 10, 2006Date of Patent: October 7, 2008Assignees: United Microelectronics Corp., United Microdisplay Optronics Corp.Inventors: Yi-Tyng Wu, Fu-Kuo Ou

Publication number: 20080106677Abstract: An electrode structure including a substrate, an electrode structural layer and a color reflection layer is provided. The substrate includes a circuit already formed thereon. The electrode structural layer is disposed over the substrate and electrically coupled to the circuit. The color reflection layer is disposed over the electrode structural layer. When light is incident on the color reflection layer and the electrode structural layer, the color reflection layer only reflects light of a specific color range. Furthermore, according to the electrode structure, a reflective LCOS panel and a projection-type displaying apparatus can be manufactured.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 3, 2006Publication date: May 8, 2008Applicant: United Microdisplay Optronics Corp.Inventors: Da-Shuang Kuan, Chun-Sheng Fan

Patent number: 7237900Abstract: A polarization conversion system suited for LCD or LCoS-based projection applications is disclosed. The present invention polarization conversion system encompasses a light pipe with a rectangular light tunnel therein defined by four side reflection mirrors. A front reflection with an aperture thereon is mounted on an entrance face of the light pipe. A first polarization beam splitter is mounted on an exit face of the light pipe. A retardation plate, which is perpendicular to the exit face, is situated atop the first polarization beam splitter. A reflection mirror is situated atop the retardation plate. A second polarization beam splitter is mounted under the first polarization beam splitter and is opposite to the retardation plate.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 2004Date of Patent: July 3, 2007Assignee: United Microdisplay Optronics Corp.Inventors: Ci Guang Peng, Hsin Wen Tsai, Po Liang Chiang, Yi Wei Liu, Hsueh-Chen Chang
