Abstract

A light source for a digital image projection system with a thin-film resonant microchamber comprising a plurality of image-generating light sources. The light images generated from the plurality of light sources are combined and projected onto a projection screen. Each light source comprises a primary electro-luminescent image-generating unit, comprising a layer of electro-luminescent phosphorus and an array of control electrodes for generation of a luminescent image in the phosphorus layer; furthermore an image amplifier with a photocathode adjacent to the electro-luminescent phosphorus layer and generating electrons as a result of light from the primary electro-luminescent image, and an anode for acceleration of the generated electrons by a voltage difference in the direction of the thin-film resonant microchamber.
