The polarization characteristics of poly(vinyl alcohol)-iodine complex, (PVA-KI system) prepared by the oxidation process of PVA film containing a potassium iodide (KI) were investigated. The UV-visible spectrum of the PVA-KI system polarizing film showed avsorption bands corresponding to $I^{-}$, $I{_3}{^-}$ and $I{_5}{^-}$ chromophoric species at 220 nm, 290~360 nm, respectively. The polarization efficiency and transmittance of PVA-KI system film were significantly influenced by oxidation time, stretching ratio and concentration of KI. The prepared polarizing film exhibited a high polarization efficiency(99.5%) and transmittance(45%). Especially, the heat resistance of the polarizing film was higher than that of a commercial PVA-$I_2$ polarizing film. It may be argued that the result should come from a difference in oxidation process of PVA polarizing film.

액정 디스플레이(LCD)의 핵심 재료인 편광필름은 제조 과정이나 운반 과정에서 실오라기 같은 이물 및 찍힘 등의 결함이 발생하며 이를 사람이 육안으로 검사하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이런 편광필름의 결함을 자동으로 검출하기위한 방법으로 히스토그램의 통계적 모멘트를 사용하여 주변 밝기에 따라 검사 영역의 밝기의 기울기를 구하고, 이를 통해 결함의 유무를 판단하는 편광필름 검사 방법을 제안한다.

Three reactive dichroic dyes with 3,5-dichloro-2,4,6-triazine moiety were synthesized by reaction between dichroic dyes (such as congo red, direct black 22 or direct black 4) and cyanuric chloride. Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) films were dyed with the obtained three reactive dichroic dyes. After 400% drawing of the PVA films, their optical properties were compared with an iodine-doped PVA film prepared in the same condition. Durability test was performed at $50^{\circ}C$ in 85% of relative humidity for 120 hrs. We found that compared with the iodine-doped PVA polarizing film, the relative durability of the PVA polarizing film dyed with the reactive dichroic dyes was greatly improved.

In this study, we demonstrate the change of optical characteristic by thickness of metal deposition on nano metal grid polarizer film fabrication. Nano metal grid polarizer film consists of aluminium grid polarizer layer on PET (Polyethylene phthalate) substrate. We aim at metal grid layer formation for the large nano wire grid polarizer fabrication. we draw process conditions of the nano metal grid polarizer film fabrication to improve transmittance and extinction ratio and Nano wire grid polarizer film (NWGP) film is fabricated with 140 nm pitch, 70 nm width, and 70 nm depth of metal grid on optimum design conditions. As a result, we get high optical properties of nano wire grid polarizer which is the maximum transmittance of 80% and the extinction ratio of $10^6$ at 600 nm wavelength respectively.

We studied the orientation behavior and thermal stability of polyimide (PI) molecules under irradiation of polarized UV (PUV) using polarized fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. In the case of PUV-exposed PI films, the remaining PI molecules after photo-degradation showed molecular orientation perpendicular to the irradiated PUV polarization direction predominantly, due to the preferential degradation of PI molecules parallel to the irradiated PUV Polarization direction. On the other hand, the rubbing of PI films induced reorientation of the PI molecules parallel to the rubbing direction. We also investigated the thermal stability of the alignment layers furled by rubbing and PUV irradiation on the PI films using Polarized FTIR. The thermal stability of the PUV irradiated PI alignment layer is lower than that of the rubbed PI layer due to the fragmentation reaction of the PI by PUV.

In this paper, we propose a global approach for automatic inspection of defects in the polarizer film image. The proposed method does not rely on local feature of the defect. It is based on a global image reconstruction scheme using the singular value decomposition(SVD). SVD is used to decompose the image and then obtain a diagonal matrix of the singular values. Among the singular values, the first singular value is used to reconstruct a image. In reconstructed image, the normal pixels in background region have a different characteristics from the pixels in defect region. It is obtained the ratio of pixels in the reconstructed image to ones in the original image and then the defects are detected based on the the statistical process of the ratio. The experiment results show that the proposed method is efficient for defect inspection of polarizer lam image.

In this paper, we propose a new image processing technique that reliably detects the various defects of TFT-LCD polarizing films. The image of polarizing film is acquisited from reflected laser beam First, we apply the morphological image processing technique to remove the background noise. Next, we use the 2-dimensional LMS adaptive filtering and statistical characteristics to detect the white and black defects. Performance of the proposed method is evaluated on real TFT-LCD polarizing film samples.

In this study, commercial poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) film was dyed with reactive dichroic dyes under mild conditions using organic solvents in stead of strong basic aqueous solution. After drawing of 500% of this PVA film, the polarizing efficiency and the single piece transmittance were measured. The degree of saponification of the commercialized PVA film was determined by using NMR and FT-IR spectromety. The commercial PVA film, with ca. 100% of the degree of saponification determined by NMR spectrometry, was dyed with the reactive dichroic dyes, which have 3,5-dichloro-2,4,6-triazine moiety. As a result, we found that the PVA film dyed with the reactive congo red showed relatively good polarization efficiency, and the PVA film dyed with the reactive direct black 22 exhibited relatively good single piece transmittance.

In this paper, we designed a new antireflective film to improve the optical efficiency of organic light-emitting diode displays (OLEDs). The reflection characteristics in the normal and side viewing directions of OLEDs with the antireflective film were calculated, depending on the degree of polarization and transmittance of the currently used polarizer when used in the antireflective film of an OLED. The results showed that when the polarization degree of the commercial polarizer (99.990~99.995%) is lowered to 99.900%, the average reflectance of the antireflective film is increased by about 0.1% (2.5% in terms of rate of increase) which is difficult to notice with the human eye, while the transmittance is increased by 1.63~3.34% (4.2~8.2% in terms of rate of increase). This study provides an optimal design for high-light-efficiency OLEDs with good antireflection properties.

A polymer/iodine complex film was prepared using syndiotactic poly(vinyl alcohol) (s-PVA) with number-average degree of polymerization of 900 and syndiotactic diad content of 63.1%. In comparison with atactic-PVA/iodine films, degree of polarization of the s-PVA/iodine film was improved up to over 99% although a lower transmittance was obtained. By soaking in iodine/potassium iodide aqueous solution of a lower iodine concentration and subsequent drawing by 4 times, s-PVA/iodine film of a higher transmittance and degree of polarization was produced. The degree of iodine desorption of the s-PVA/iodine film in water were very low. The crystallinity and the d-spacing and crystal size of (100) plane increased at the early stage of soaking time, however, remained constant or decreased slightly with increasing soaking time. In consequence, s-PVA/iodine complex formation took place mainly inside crystal region at the initial stage of soaking time, whereas it occurred outside crystal region or physical adsorption of iodine dominated after sufficient soaking.
