`
`Hi Ying-Moh,
`
`
`
`Here is the document upon which I'm basing the source object size. The size values flow from the
`following projector specs outlined below.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`2048 X 1080 pixel count
`
`13.8 um square pixel pitch
`
`
`
`Therefore, source size = (2048 x 13.8um) X (1080 x 13.8um) = 28.26mm X 14.90mm. If you need
`anything else let me know.

`Jerry and Michael:
`
`
`
`The following is a summary of what we discussed on Friday:
`
`
`
`1. The source object size should be 28.26x14.9mm as provided by Mahir. Please let me know if this
`is incorrect. I have updated my Zemax file. Is there any supporting document for this updated size?
`
`2. Add a HWP in the reflection path prior to the Z-screen. Ying-Moh will contact Nitto and Colorlink
`for available parts to be embedded in between glass substrates.
`
`3. The Z-screens should output P-polarized light in both paths.
`
`4. Glass windows should be added in the light paths to minimize particles in the Proflux
`chamber. TThe Z-screens may be used as windows.
`
`5. A round mirror of 1 foot in diameter will be used in the reflection path. Ying-Moh will search for
`appropriate parts of about 1" thick.
`
`6. Check Z-screen size with customer to see if custom size is available for mechanical packaging
`reason. Need to know available thicknesses for optical purposes. (CDS)
`
`7. Check available thicknesses of Proflux. (YML)

`
`
`1. Introduction and Objectives
`
`This report provides results of a feasibility study for an optical apparatus that can efficiently convert the
`unpolarized output light from a typical DLP projector to two polarized beams and recombine after proper
`light manipulation. The apparatus could be added to an existing DLP projector, like the Christie CP2000,
`to provide 3D viewing with the use of a ZScreen in each path which has the same polarization states. Such
`beam separation and recombination can provide much higher brightness on the screen for 3D viewing.
`
`The purpose of this study is to develop the basic concepts and practical opto-mechanical configuration with
`sufficient analysis to prove that the concepts are fundamentally sound and can meet the requirements in
`obtaining higher on-screen brightness while maintaining the original display qualities.
`
`In this feasibility study, we will analyze two configurations for using a polarizing beamsplitting (PBS)
`device to increase the output of a DLP cinema projector system with the use of two ZScreens, which are
`active circular polarization rotators, for creating a 3D projection system. The result of this study will define
`the engineering issues and the viability of the design and manufacturing of such apparatus for the intended
`application.
`
`The study’s conclusion is that the basic approach provided by RealD will yield the desired objectives;
`performance, practicality and affordability. During discussions between RealD and CDS it was determined
`that to fully understand the requirements and their impact on end item performance, it would be best to
`design and build a prototype system. After this is complete and evaluated then a final production
`configuration would be defined. This study provides a recommendation on the characteristics of this
`prototype and timeline for development, price and delivery.
`
`2. Assumption in Existing Projector
`
`• Projection lens light cone size at lens front surface: 75mm (W) x 50mm (H)
`
`• Projection lens front clearance: 3mm min.
`
`•
`
`Image pixel count: 2048 x 1080 (~1.85:1 aspect ratio)
`
`• Pixel pitch: 13.8µm square
`
`• Projection lens FOV: 30
`
`o
` full angle
`
`• Output light: Unpolarized, ~10k lumens
`
`• Projected screen size: 25 x 13.5m (1.85:1 aspect ratio)
`
`• F/#: 2.4
`
`3. Specific Requirements
`
`• Pixel offset between two paths: ±0.5 pixel in the middle and ±1 pixel at the edge
`
`• Light throughput increase: 70% increase
`
`4. Proposed Configurations
`
`Two different configurations are studied and will be described and discussed in the following sections.
`Both configurations utilize a polarizing beamsplitting device, either a wire grid polarizer (WGP) or a PBS
`cube with dielectric thin-film coating embedded in between two right angle glass prisms. The reflected
`path will have a fold mirror to reflect light towards the screen. A brief description of a simplified model of
`the projection lens is provided in Section 4.1, followed by the discussion of the two configurations.

`
`4.1 Simplified Model of the Projection Lens
`
`
`
`Short of knowing the exact prescription of the projections lens, in order to estimate the size of the
`components in the following configurations, a simplified model is used based on the available lens function
`data. The first order properties of the projector is derived in Eq.(1) below based on information in Section

`
`Based on Eq. (1), a paraxial lens with the following properties is assumed and utilized in the model shown
`in Figure 1. The ray trace showing the ray footprint of 75x50mm at the lens front surface is shown in
`Figure 2.

`
`
`
`Now that a paraxial model of the projection lens is shown with the correct properties, the PBS model can
`be built properly as described in Sections 4.2 and 4.3.
`
`4.2 Use of a Wire-Grid Polarizer (WGP) and a Weakly Powered Fold Mirror
`
`In this configuration, a WGP is utilized to divide the unpolarized beam into P and S-polarized beams in the
`vertical direction. As shown in Figure 3, the screen is set at a distance about 46.5m away from the
`projector so that the screen width corresponding to the imager width is 25m,. As shown in Figure 4, the P-
`polarized transmitted beam will go through the ZScreen, which is assumed to include a linear polarizer for
`cleanup. The ZScreen is a π-cell that can convert the P-polarized light to a circularly polarized light. A 3D
`view of the configuration is given in Figure 5 that provides a more clear view of the vertical fold.
`
`For the reflected path, similarly, the WGP reflects the S-polarized portion of the unpolarized incident beam.
`It then goes through a half wave plate to convert it to P-polarized light then on to a second ZScreen which
`converts the now linearly P-polarized light to a circularly polarized light. The concave mirror has a radius
`of curvature of 250m, so designed to minimize the pixel offset between the two paths. The reflected beam
`has a slight toe-in angle of 0.184º so that its beam center will coincide with that of the straight through
`beam.
`
`The assumed projection lens F/number is 2.4 at the object plane. Since the magnification is 884, as given
`in Eq.(1), the F/number and the depth of field at the screen are

`
`The toe-in angle results in a tilt of the image plane for the reflected path. The largest depth difference at
`the edge of the field-of-view (FOV) between the two paths is about 21.7mm, which is far less than the
`depth of field of the projection lens as given in Eq.(2). As such, the two images should appear in good
`focus. In the case when a flat fold mirror is utilized, the two images has a lateral shift of about 10mm, as

`
`shown in Figure 6, which is less than 1 pixel wide. The geometric relationship of the angles and distances
`is shown in Figure 7. Both the lateral shift and the depth difference between the two images from the two
`paths are shown in Figure 8.
`
`The WGP is available with the maximum size of 180mm round in diameter. The beam footprint for the
`WGP is shown in Figure 9 for a WGP of 140(H) x 110(V) dimension, which is well within the available
`size.
`
`The high transmission model of the WGP has an average transmittance and reflectance of about 88%. The
`published data is given in Figure 11. As such, assuming a 94% reflectance for the fold mirror, the expected
`throughput efficiency for polarized light output prior to reaching the ZScreen; with 100% unpolarized light
`input is 86%, which has a gain of almost 100% when compared to the use of a typical linear polarizer made
`of stretched plastics, which has about 45% transmittance for unpolarized input light.

`
`4.3 Use of Cube Polarizing Beamsplitter (PBS) with Either Dielectric Thin-
`Film Coating or Embedded WGP, and a Weakly Powered Concave
`Mirror
`
`In this configuration, a cube PBS is utilized to divide the unpolarized beam into P and S-polarized beams,
`as shown in Figure 12. The transmitted beam will go through a ZScreen, which is a π-cell that can convert
`the S-polarized light to a circularly polarized light. The ZScreen is assumed to have a built-in linear
`polarizer that can act as a clean-up polarizer. Otherwise, a WGP can be inserted between the PBS cube and
`the ZScreen for cleanup.
`
`For the reflected path, similarly, the PBS reflects the S-polarized portion of the unpolarized incident beam.
`It then goes through a half wave plate to convert it to P-polarized light then on to a second ZScreen which
`converts the now linearly P-polarized light to a circularly polarized light. A fold mirror with a radius of

`reduced the magnification slightly so that the lateral shifts between the two paths, at the top and bottom
`edges, are also reduced to less than 8mm as shown in Figure 13
`
`The toe-in angle results in a tilt of the image plane from the reflected path. As indicated in Figure 13, the
`largest depth difference at the edge of the field-of-view (FOV) between the two paths is about 21mm,
`which is much less than the depth of field of the projection lens. As such, the two images should appear in
`good focus. The largest lateral shift is 8mm, which is less than 1 pixel pitch. A list of components and their
`sizes are provided in Table 2. Some of their estimated costs are given as well. A 3D model is shown in
`Figure 13.

`An example of PBS coating performance in TP and TS is shown in Error! Reference source not found.,
`which is a topographical view of TP and TS vs. angle of incidence (AOI) and wavelengths. As one can see,
`this example shows performance up to about ±12º. TP can be as high as 97-99% over a substantial area on
`the map while TS is less than 0.02% over half of the map, which makes the extinction ratio above 5,000
`over the overlapped region. The weighted averaged curves over for TP and RS are given in Figure 15.
`Comparing to those in Figure 10 for the WGP, cube PBS appears to have higher performance. The tradeoff
`would be the weight, thermal loading, availability and cost. However, given the two beams are combined
`at the screen the variation in polarization efficiency over the aperture may be a non-issue assuming there is
`no depolarization or absorption. The glass material must have low stress bi-faineance to ensure little or no
`transmission looses especially over temperature. As opposed to WGP being a commercially available part
`that one can purchase at a reasonable price and delivery schedule, using a cube PBS would involve a whole
`development project in order to realize the advantages.

`4.4 Embedded WGP
`It is feasible to embed the WGP in between two right angle glass prisms. Due to refraction of the edge
`rays, the prism would reduce the beam size at the diagonal plane, as shown in Figure 16. The required
`WGP size of 120mm x 100mm is smaller than the bare WGP size of 140mm x 110mm as given in Table 1.
`Due to the fragility of the wire grid coating, special care needs to be taken in assembling the WGP in
`between the prisms. Such assembly can protect the fragile wires during operation.

`
`4.5 Mechanical Configuration
`
`To implement the image combiner, CDS will incorporate a combination of off-the-shelf and custom
`designed components. A modified gimble mount will be used to align the two images, and a plunger
`mechanism on the back of the fold mirror will modify the shape of the mirror surface to introduce optical
`power with the upper channel. The plunger will pull on the center of the round mirror to introduce about
`10 waves of power on the mirror. The details of the exact interface to the will be done in the prototype
`phase. From our initial investigation it appears the front structure of the projector is robust enough to hold
`the assembly.

`5. Summary Comparison
`
`A summary of the 3 approaches is shown in Table 3. Some compared parameters are clarified in the notes.
`At this time, all three approaches look feasible in providing desired desirable geometry, weight, and
`efficiency. Further study will be needed to analyze the other performance factors, such as brightness and
`color uniformity. However this is most likely done with the prototype.

`
`2. Relative cost includes the estimated material costs of beamsplitting device (WGP or PBS) and the
`fold mirror. Development cost of a thin-film PBS coating is not included. Cost of actuators for
`deforming the mirror is not included.
`
`3. Weight includes the beamsplitting device (WGP or PBS) and the fold mirror. ZScreen weight is
`not included. Actuator weight is not included. Weight of mechanical mounts is not included.
`
`4. Efficiency includes the beamsplitting device (WGP or PBS) and the fold mirror (~94%).
`
`5. Risk is mostly associated with the available beamsplitting device. For WGP, it is related to the
`protection of the WGP. For the cube PBS, it is the risk in successfully completing a thin-film
`coating over a large area with desired performance. For embedded WGP, it is the risk in
`assembling the WGP in between two prisms. Another major risk is how to control the spherical
`power on the fold mirror.
`
`Three different configurations are studied above:
`
`1. Use of a wire grid polarizer (WGP) plus a weakly power fold mirror;
`
`2. Use of a cube PBS plus a weakly power fold mirror;
`
`3. Use of an embedded WGP in a cube PBS plus a weakly power fold mirror.
`
`All 3 cases are shown to be feasible in meeting the requirements of:
`
`1. > 70% increase in light throughput;
`
`2. < 1 pixel pitch offset between two combined beams
`
`3. < $3K of optical component cost;
`
`The major risks involved in the three configurations are:
`
`1. The delicacy of WGP in the case of using a bare WGP.
`
`2. The complexity and difficulty involved in developing a large area PBS dielectric thin film coating.
`
`3. The complexity and difficulty involved in embedding a WGP in between two large right angle
`prisms.
`
`4. The complexity and difficulty in controlling the radius of curvature of the fold mirror, which may
`require the use of actuators to actively control the mirror shape.
`
`5. Thermal loading on optical and mechanical components that may affect the system performance
`over time.
`
`6. Development schedule involved in developing a high performance PBS coating.
`
`The choice of configuration to implement will require careful tradeoff considerations of the performance,
`cost and schedule.

`
`
`
`6. Recommendation
`
`Given the information above CDS’ recommendation is to build the prototype using the WGP along with a
`way to deform the fold mirror to reduce the magnification between the two paths. It is thought that the
`prism approaches are both of higher risk (with or w/o the WGP). Also the non-recurring design, schedule
`and recurring cost could be prohibitive and concerns regarding life issues due to the heat from the projected
`light.
`
`Although the WGP will have to be housed in a sealed mount it has no issues with heat and performance is
`acceptable with probably no need for clean up polarizer.
`
`7. Price
`
`The pricing for prototype system is $102,000.
`
`The terms are as follows:
`
`25% at time of order
`
`50% at final design review
`
`25% at delivery
`
`8. Delivery
`
`Delivery of the image combiner is 16 weeks after receipt of order.
