Abstract: A display apparatus including a display panel, a light source configured to emit light, and a light guide disposed on the light source and covering a side of the light source, the light source including a substrate, a light emitter including a light emitting stacked layer and disposed on the substrate, a light blocking layer disposed on a side surface of the light emitting stacked layer, and a reflector disposed between the substrate and the light guide, in which the light emitter has a first length direction and a second length direction, wherein orientation angles of the light emitter in the first and second length directions are different from each other, the substrate includes a first pad electrode and second pad electrode electrically connected to the light emitter, and the first and second pad electrodes are spaced apart from each other by at least 50 ?m.

Abstract: A transmissive image modulator for allowing image modulation over a wide bandwidth with multiple Fabry-Perot resonant modes and multiple absorption modes is provided. The transmissive image modulator includes a lower reflection layer; an active layer disposed on the lower reflection layer, including multiple quantum well layers and multiple barrier layers; an upper reflection layer disposed on the active layer; and at least one micro-cavity layer disposed in at least one of the lower and upper reflection layer. The active layer and the at least one micro-cavity layer have thicknesses of a multiple of ?/2, where ? is a resonant wavelength.
