1. A display comprising:

  • at least one interferometric modulator configured to selectively reflect light having a characteristic color, the at least one interferometric modulator having a spectral response characterized by a first spectral peak having a spectral width; and

    at least one source of colored light having a spectral output characterized by a second spectral peak having a spectral width, the at least one source of colored light configured to illuminate the at least one interferometric modulator so that the selectively reflected light is characterized by a third spectral peak,wherein the third spectral peak has a spectral width that is narrower than the spectral width of the first spectral peak and wherein the spectral width of the first spectral peak is the range of wavelengths of the first spectral peak at the full width at half maximum of intensity of the selectively reflected light, the spectral width of the second spectral peak is the range of wavelengths of the second spectral peak at the full width at half maximum of intensity of the spectral output of the at least one source of colored light and the spectral width of the third spectral peak is the range of wavelengths of the third spectral peak at the full width at half maximum of intensity of the selectively reflected light.
