A reflective color display that can be addressed from the front (viewing surface side) of the display with a light source, such as a projector, LED, or laser. The display comprises (in order) a color filter array, a transparent electrode, an electro-optic medium, a photoconductive material, and a rear electrode.

A liquid crystal display panel includes: a first substrate and a second substrate opposite to each other, and a liquid crystal layer provided between the first substrate and the second substrate. The liquid crystal display panel further includes electrodes provided on a surface of the first substrate facing the second substrate; and an optical sensing dielectric layer provided on the electrodes. The insulativity of the optical sensing dielectric layer decreases as light received from a backlight source corresponding to the liquid crystal display panel increases.

A photoconductive antenna has an array of antenna electrodes on or in a photoconductive substrate. The photoconductive substrate is irradiated with light from a pulsed laser via micro-lenses above respective gaps between antenna electrodes. This makes the photoconductive substrate temporarily conductive, causing pulsed electric antenna currents that can be used for transmission of electromagnetic radiation in the Terahertz range. The bias circuit of the antenna is configured to determine voltages applied to the antenna electrodes by capacitive voltage division over a series of successive capacitors, each capacitor being formed by the antenna electrodes of a respective pair of successive ones of the antenna electrodes in the array as plates of the capacitor adjacent to a respective one of the gaps.

An LCD is described. The LCD includes an LCD panel and a backlight. The LCD panel includes a plurality of LCD elements arranged in an array, each element configured to change its light transmission based on a voltage applied to the LCD element. The backlight is configured to provide light to the LCD elements of the LCD panel. The backlight includes one or more visible light elements providing visible light to the LCD panel, and includes one or more non-visible light elements, different from the visible light elements, providing non-visible light to the LCD panel at a wavelength such that the non-visible light increases the photoconductivity of the LCD elements.
