Abstract
We propose a two‐dimensional (2D)/ three‐dimensional (3D) mixed display system based on polarization division multiplexing. The polarization division multiplexing device is composed of a polarization switching layer, a polarization‐dependent liquid crystal micro‐lens array (LCMLA) and a scattering polarizer. According to the polarization state of incident light switched by the polarization switching layer, the combined action of polarization‐dependent LCMLA and scattering polarizer can form both point light source array for 3D display and scattered light source for 2D display. The 2D/3D mixed images can be reconstructed through the precise control of the polarization direction of each pixel. The advantage of the proposed system is that a point light source array and a surface light source are formed only by adjusting the state of the polarization switching layer. What's more, our proposed system has low driving voltage and relatively compact system volume.
