Experimental research on preparation of scattering polarizer by dry stretching method
Scattering polarizer is a new type of translucent optical film which has a slight haze. When incident light is unpolarized
half of the light is transmitted
while the other is scattered. This scattering polarizer has application prospects on a transparent projection screen
but has not been industrialized yet. In this paper
the method of dry stretching polyvinyl alcohol doped liquid crystal (PVA:LC) was used to prepare scattering polarizer. First
we prepared polyvinyl alcohol doped liquid crystal aqueous emulsion
flowed on flat glass and then dried to form a film. Then
we baked and stretched to about 4 times length with a small stretching machine
in order to get scattered polarizer samples. Finally
experimental results show that the transmittance of the sample is 40%
and the polarization efficiency is 57%. Using the sample as a screen to observe the projection effect
results show that rear projection of polarized light perpendicular to optical axis is the best. This paper is of reference significance for the realization of the industrialization of the scattering polarizer.
