<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To redouble pixels in two dimensions with one optical deflecting element, to simplify the device constitution, and to reduce energy loss. <P>SOLUTION: Provided are a transparent substrate 42 which has an electrode array 44 corresponding to a longitudinal pixel pitch, a transparent substrate 41 which has an electrode array 43 corresponding to a lateral pixel pitch, and a liquid crystal layer 45 which is interposed between the two transparent substrates 41 and 42 and can have its refractive index distribution controlled by voltage application from the electrode arrays. The apparent number of pixels is redoubled by varying the state of voltage application to the electrode array. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2003,JPO |
