ABSTRACT:
An optical modulation device comprises first electrodes and second electrodes disposed opposite to and intersecting with the signal electrodes, and an optical modulation material providing a first and a second orientation state depending on an electric field applied thereto disposed between the first electrodes and the second electrodes, a pixel being formed at each intersection of the first electrodes and the second electrodes so as to form a matrix of pixels as a whole. The optical modulation device is driven by applying an alternating address voltage signal comprising a fore pulse and a rear pulse to an addressed electrode among the first electrodes; and applying, to the second electrodes, a first voltage signal for orienting the pixels on the addressed electrode to the first orientation state in phase with the fore pulse, and a second voltage signal for providing a pixel among the pixels on the addressed electrode with a prescribed areal ratio between the first and second orientation states in the pixel depending on given gradation data; the first and second voltage signals being set to have substantially the same absolute value.
