With the method of impedance matching used, we have designed and fabricated an a-Si:H LCLV and have obtained a clear image on a large screen projection system. The resolution of the valve was 20 lp/mm. The sensitometry measurement showed that the projection light level varies linearly with the writing light level when the latter is below 100 μW/cm2. The measurement of the transient response at the writing light level of 100 μW/cm2 indicated that the rise time and the decay time were 60 ms and 80 ms, respectively.展开更多
