A color sequential front-lit (CS-FL) LCOS optical design, which brings advantages of wide color gamut, high resolution, and high contrast for wearable applications, is presented. On the basis of our recent color filter front-lit (CF-FL) LCOS experimental result, which delivers 100 nits/mW (i.e., 17,000 nits at 30 mA driving current of a dual-chip LED), we demonstrated a new CS-FL design of 116 nits/mW using RGB LED and converted green phosphor. The color non-uniformity problem caused by separated individual RGB LED chips was solved by a hollow integrator rod and a sheet of diffuser. Furthermore, together with a mixer light guide (MLG) with grating, spatially averaged RGB light can have a much collimated angular intensity and uniform illuminance distribution to PBS light guide (PBSLG). Besides, the color luminance non-uniformity (standard deviation of color difference) of this newly designed CS-FL can reduced 11% compared to that of the original CF-FL.
