DEPOLARIZERS AND METHODS OF MAKING THEREOF

摘要

A depolarizer, including: a photoalignment layer deposited on the substrate; and a birefringent layer deposited on the photoalignment layer; wherein the photoalignment layer includes a plurality of segments, each segment with a different fast axis orientation and a different pretilt angle, such that each segment of the birefringent layer over the corresponding segment of the photoalignment layer has a different fast axis angle and a different birefringent value.
