  • Patent number: 11506899
    Abstract: A holographic display device includes a display panel for emitting a first image light and a diffraction component on an optical path of the first image light. The first image light includes first and second colors of light. The diffraction component diffracts the first color light at a first diffraction efficiency and diffracts the second color light at a second diffraction efficiency. The first color light and the second color light after diffraction are mixed together in a second image light for generating holographic images. By emitting the first color light and the second color light in the first image light at the same grayscale value, a ratio of intensities of the first color light and the second color light becomes inversely proportional to a ratio of the first diffraction efficiency and the second diffraction efficiency.
