Abstract

The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a micro-polarizer array based on a metal nanometer grating. The method comprises the steps that (1) a substrate is coated with a metal film layer, and the metal film layer is dried; (2) the metal film layer is coated with an electron beam positive photoresist layer in a spinning mode, and the electron beam positive photoresist layer is dried; (3) electron beam direct writing, exposure and developing are conducted on the photoresist layer, and then a photoresist nanoscale micro-polarizer array graph is obtained; (4) inductive coupled plasma is used for etching, wherein the photoresist layer with the image is used as a mask, the metal film layer is etched, and therefore the image is transferred to the metal film layer; (5) the photoresist layer is removed, and then the micro-polarizer array is obtained. The method for manufacturing the micro-polarizer array based on the metal nanometer grating is easy to implement. According to the method for manufacturing the micro-polarizer array based on the metal nanometer grating, the micro-polarizer array with multiple different polarization directions can be obtained through one-time exposure and developing; the polarization performance of the micro-polarizer array manufactured according to the method is high.
