Owning to the fast development of projection technologies, the large‐scale projection has great potential application for various viewing circumstances in open spaces. This paper reports a novel type of optical imaging film (G2‐HK‐FP) which comprised of a combination of micro‐lens arrays of different sizes and an ambient light rejection design. This film exhibited comparable displaying performance with silver screen film in the dark environment, and superior performance in the ambient light condition in the aspects of relative contrast, color gamut and ambient light rejection efficiency.

A novel scheme of projection film screen to get ultra large color gamut using photonic band gap reflection mechanism is proposed. The projection screen made by a kind of film that can only reflect three narrowband R/G/B light emitted from projector (E.g., 460nm, 560nm and 650nm), as well as absorb other visible light wavelengths. The film has a well‐designed nano level multilayer structure which can form three photonic band gaps to reflect 460nm, 560nm and 650nm light respectively. An ultra large color gamut of 73.44% Rec2020 (138.68% sRGB) was obtained even under a bright room ambient light, that makes projection image quality comparable to a traditional TV. It could be an effective way to help solve the problem of dull color performance shown on traditional projection screens.
