Abstract: A method of preparing high refractive index nanoparticles includes adding a polymer stabilizer to a solvent, and forming high refractive index nanoparticles by adding high refractive index nanoparticle materials to the solvent and stirring the same. The high refractive index nanoparticle materials may have a refractive index equal to or greater than 1.8, and sizes of the high refractive index nanoparticles may be determined by adjusting a content of the polymer stabilizer to control an amount of the polymer stabilizer adsorbed to surfaces of the high refractive index nanoparticles.

Abstract: According to example embodiments, a color image panel includes pixels configured to display a color image. At least one of the pixels includes a tunable photonic crystal filter configured to reflect light in a wavelength band of a selected color and to transmit light in a wavelength band other than the wavelength band of the selected color, based on a stimulus controlling a photonic bandgap of tunable photonic crystal filter, and a white display unit configured to control saturation and brightness of color displayed by the tunable photonic crystal filter, based on the white display unit adding white light to color light reflected from the tunable photonic crystal filter.

Abstract: A method of preparing a monodisperse particle may include mixing at least two types of monomers in a solvent, placing an initiator in the solvent, and forming a particle having a copolymer shape by polymerizing the at least two types of monomers. The particle may have a size controlled by a content of the at least two types of monomers.

Abstract: Provided are examples of light modulators and optical apparatuses that may include the light modulators. A light modulator may include a plasmonic nano-antenna and an element for changing plasmon resonance characteristics of the plasmonic nano-antenna. The plasmon resonance characteristics of the plasmonic nano-antenna may be changed due to a change in refractive index of the element, and thus light may be modulated.

Abstract: A display apparatus includes a light guide plate to emit light that enters through a side surface of the light guide plate through an upper surface of the light guide plate, a light source arranged on at least one side of the light guide plate, a reflection plate arranged under the light guide plate, a color filter layer arranged above the light guide plate, and an optical shutter arranged above the color filter layer to transmit or block at least a part of light according to electric control, wherein the color filter layer includes a transmission type color filter to transmit light in a particular wavelength band and reflect light in other wavelength bands.
