Abstract

Ce dispositif d'affiche est doté : d'un circuit de calcul de la répartition de phase permettant de générer des données d'une pluralité de distributions de phase pour chaque longueur d'onde, les distributions de phase correspondant à une image reproduite de chaque longueur d'onde qui est reproduite par un élément de modulation de phase optique ; et un circuit d'attaque permettant de générer, sur la base des données de la pluralité des distributions de phase pour chaque longueur d'onde, une pluralité de tensions appliquées pour chaque longueur d'onde qui sont appliquées à l'élément de modulation de phase optique et amenant les phases d'une pluralité de lumières à se différencier l'une de l'autre en longueur d'onde qui sont entrées séparément à temps pour être modulées pour chaque longueur d'onde séparément à temps par l'élément de modulation de phase optique. Le circuit d'attaque génère la pluralité de tensions de sorte que la plage de tension diffère pour chaque longueur d'onde, et de sorte que la valeur minimale de la plage de tension baisse et la valeur maximale augmente lorsque la longueur d'onde augmente.
