REFLECTING LIGHT POLARIZER HAVING POLARIZING FILM BETWEEN TWO SAWTOOTH-SHAPED SURFACES.

摘要

A reflecting light polarizer (100) having improved polarizing efficiency, and a method of manufacturing the reflecting light polarizer. The reflecting light poplarizer includes a first non-linear mating surface (204), a second non-linear mating surface (214) and a polarizing coating (108) disposed between the first and second non-linear mating surfaces wherein a first light polarization (504 or 604) is transmitted through the reflecting light polarizer and a second light polarization (506 or 606) is reflected by the reflecting light polarizer. The reflecting light polarizer can further include glue disposed between the first non-linear mating surface and the second non-linear mating surface. The reflecting light polarizer also can include at least one clamping device securing together the first non-linear mating surface and the second non-linear mating surface. The first and second non-linear mating surfaces can be glass, plastic or crystalline.
