THREE-DIMENSIONAL DISPLAY, FABRICATING METHOD AND CONTROLLING METHOD THEREOF
First Claim
1. A three-dimensional display, adapted for a viewer to watch through glasses with two lenses having polarized directions perpendicular to each other, the three-dimensional display comprising:
- a display panel comprising a plurality of pixels arranged in array and a polarizer, wherein the polarizer being disposed between the pixels and the glasses and having a transmission axis, and the display panel is suitable for displaying an image; and
a liquid crystal phase modulator disposed between the display panel and the glasses and comprising a liquid crystal layer and an alignment layer adjacent to the display panel, wherein an included angle between an alignment direction of the alignment layer and the transmission axis is substantially equal to n×
45 degrees, an absolute value of n being an integer, the liquid crystal phase modulator is suitable for providing a phase retardation, the liquid crystal phase modulator adjusting a phase of the image to output an image with three-dimensional information, and the liquid crystal phase modulator comprising no polarizer.

Abstract
A three-dimensional display for the viewer to watch through glasses is provided, wherein the glasses have two lenses and the polarized directions thereof are perpendicular to each other. The three-dimensional display includes a display panel and a liquid crystal phase modulator. The display panel, suitable for displaying an image, has a plurality of pixels arranged in array and a polarizer having a transmission axis, wherein the polarizer disposed between the pixels and the glasses. The liquid crystal phase modulator suitable for providing phase retardation includes a liquid crystal layer and an alignment layer adjacent to the display panel. An included angle between an alignment direction of the alignment layer and the transmission axis is substantially equal to n×45 degrees, wherein an absolute value of n is an integer. The liquid crystal phase modulator adjusts a phase of the image and then outputs an image with three-dimensional information.
