Polymer wall confined switchable diffractive liquid crystal light valve is investigated by two‐dimensional finite‐difference time‐domain (FDTD) optical simulations and liquid crystal director calculations. The calculated brightness vs. device pixel size and the number of turn “ON” pixels are provided. The results indicate that this kind of device is very promising candidate for high resolution and high brightness projection displays.
