Abstract
The invention pertains to an improved LCOS microdevice that eliminates colored lights required generally in a prior art system. According to one aspect of the present invention, the LCOS structure uses color filters directly in the LCOS chip. Depending on the number of colors being used, the color filters are arranged repeatedly according to a predefined pattern across an entire LCOS chip to coincide with pixels in the microdevice. When a white light is focused onto the LCOS microdevice, it reflects a color image that is then magnified and projected onto a display screen.
