1. A transmission color display apparatus comprising:
- generating means for generating substantially collimated light rays;
shutting means, including a plurality of pixel segments, for shutting the light rays from said generating means, each of said plurality of pixel segments selectively permitting transmission of the light rays;
diffusing means for slightly diffusing the light rays from said shutting means; and
first color filter means formed on said diffusing means and including first color filter segments arranged in correspondence with each pixel segment, each of the filter segments transmitting light rays of a specific color of the diffused light rays.

Abstract
In a transmission liquid crystal display apparatus, light rays emitted from a light source and reflected from a mirror are collimated by a collimator lens and incident in a liquid cell structure through a polarization layer. The light rays emerged from the structure are transmitted through an another polarization layer and diffused by a diffusion layer. The diffusion light rays pass through a filter layer to a viewer.

10. A transmission color display apparatus having a first plane, comprising:
-
at least one linear light source, having a light source axis, for generating light rays; collimating means, having a major axis substantially parallel with the light source axis, for reflecting the light rays from said light source and collimating the light rays along a first plane; shutting means, including a plurality of pixel segments, for shutting the light rays from said generating means, each of said plurality of pixel segments selectively permitting transmission of the light rays; diffusing means for slightly diffusing the light rays from said shutting means; and first color filter means formed on said diffusing means and including first color filter segments arranged in correspondence with each pixel segment, each of the first color filter segments transmitting light rays of a specific color of the diffused light rays. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
