Nanocrystal displays are a new type of experimental display that uses robotic muscles to control small prisms that have white light shining through them. As the white light is split by the prisms, colour will be generated on a screen. A specific frequency of light can be obtained by rotating the prism to the corresponding angle with respect to the incident light beam.
" A class of high efficiency (e.g., ≥20%) materials for use as display pixels to replace conventional phosphors in television, monitor, and flat panel displays."[1]
The technology is evolving slowly, with practical results not expected until perhaps after 2010.[2]
