• the one or more light absorbing dyes comprise a soluble, primary light absorbing dye and a soluble, secondary light absorbing dye,
• the soluble, primary light absorbing dye and the soluble, secondary light absorbing dye only have absorption properties and absorb light in a predetermined wavelength range,
• the color filter is comprised of a plurality of pixels,
• each pixel is comprised of red, green, and blue subpixels,
• the subpixels are created from a resin and a colorant such that the red subpixels have a red colorant, the green subpixels have a green colorant, and the blue subpixels have a blue colorant,
• the colorants are suspended in the resin of the subpixels,
• the soluble, primary light absorbing dye and the soluble, secondary light absorbing dye are dissolved in the resin of at least one color set of the red, green, and blue subpixels, and
