Abstract
A light modulator array includes a plurality of light modulator devices, each the light modulator device including a resistor, a conductor coupled to a first end of the resistor, a post coupled to a second end of the resistor, and a reflective plate supported by the post, an insulator separating a first of the modulator devices from an adjacent light modulator device, and an energy penetration reducer configured to prevent the insulator from becoming conductive in a region between a resistor of the first light modulator device and a conductor of the adjacent device.
