Abstract
A medium includes a plurality of Fabry-Perot cavities of varying depths. The cavities correspond to different colors which are produced by the respective cavities under incident light. A thermo-sensitive material covers the plurality of cavities. The cavities are selectively exposed by heating portions of said thermo-sensitive material to alter the thermo-sensitive material where heated thereby forming an image.
