Patent attributes
An array of pixel assemblies emitting multiple wavelengths in a direction and a method therefor, the array comprising: a plurality of pixel assemblies, each respective pixel assembly having a respective pixel area, the respective pixel assembly formed by: one or more waveguides made from electro-optically active material; a plurality of different wavelength emitters, the different wavelength emitters disposed at one or more of the ends of the respective one or more waveguides to propagate their respective wavelengths therealong and capable of being switched; and a one switch disposed to cause when activated, a shifting of the wavelengths propagating in the one or more waveguides of the pixel assembly by substantially 90 degrees to be emitted through the respective pixel area; and a backplane with an electronic circuit for switching the plurality of switches and the emitters.
