Problems solved by technology

However, the extinction ratio of the polarizing component of this method varies greatly, for example, the extinction ratio at 550nm wavelength is only 20:1
[0009] Since the extinction ratio of polarizing components currently used in the visible spectrum can only be guaranteed to be greater than 100, this cannot fully meet the requirements for optical devices that require ultra-high extinction ratios (greater than 1000).
Moreover, when applied to an optical device with a large incident light angle (such as a liquid crystal display with a light source installed on the side), the known polarizer cannot provide a high extinction ratio at any incident angle.

Abstract

This invention provides a polarized component with double-metal layer gratings. Multiple parallel dielectric layers having a period are formed on a transparent base, a groove is set between adjacent dielectric layers, a first metal layer having a first thickness is formed on the groove, a second metal layer with a second thickness and a width formed on the dielectric layer, in which, a vertical distance of 10~100um is between the first and second metal layers to isolate them. The period is 10~250nm, the thickness is 30~150nm, the first is equal to the second. The proportion of width/period is 25~75%. This invention also discloses the manufacturing method.
