Laser TV Display Technology

Aahna Soni Dept. Electronics and communication Nirma University Ahmedabad, ndia !!bec!"#$nirmauni.ac.in AbstractIn this paper new display technology is discussed. Working of laser TV display and comparison is made with other display technology. I. Introduction:screen. n comparison %ith the +-T, the energy beam in a laser display need not be maintained in a vacuum environment nor converted into a visible *orm by a special screen. This means that previous limits on screen si0e and brightness are removed and resolution capabilities are determined by physical optics instead o* electron optics.

Early displays, %hich uses method to avoid intermediate energy&conversion steps, re'uired comple(, large& aperture optical systems and e(hibited limited brightness and resolution. The laser)s high brightness and directional characteristics have overcome these problems by allo%ing light modulation and scanning techni'ues to be employed that %ere not *easible %ith conventional light sources. The laser)s monochromatic light, available at a variety o* %avelengths, allo%s color displays to be readily implemented. These *actors account *or the present level o* research and development activity in various aspects o* laser display technology. +onceptually, a laser display generates an image in the same manner as a cathode&ray tube ,+-T..
