Problems solved by technology

[0006] However, such conventional optical pigment-based filters are manufactured through four separate processes, which not only complicates and increases the cost of the manufacturing process, but also wastes a large amount of chemical materials in the process
Although Fabry-Perot-based etalon filters have been proposed, conventional Fabry-Perot-based filters still suffer from problems regarding the undesired angular dependence, which refers to the The filter wavelength of an optical device is subject to a significant wavelength shift and thus color shift depending on the viewing angle
Such angular dependence is undesirable in various imaging and display applications

Abstract

An optical spectrum filtering device, e.g., color filter, having reduced angle dependence is provided that comprises an interference filter assembly comprising a high refractive index dielectric material, such as a Fabry-Perot based resonator structure. The filter assembly is capable of transmitting a portion of an electromagnetic spectrum into the dielectric material to generate a filtered output with a predetermined range of wavelengths that displays minimal angle dependence, when viewed from a range of incidence angles ranging from normal (0°) to 90°. Methods of making minimal angle dependent optical spectrum filters and reducing angle dependence for such devices are also provided.
