A new type of circularly polarized(CP) antenna that is characterized by having both low-profile and greater axial-ratio bandwidth(ARBW) beyond existing antennas is introduced through analysis of artificial magnetic conductor(AMC) polarizer, and experimentally demonstrated. Although it is made use of a linear-polarized dipole antenna with close proximity to ground plane, it is backed by AMC polarizer so as to efficiently radiate with circularly changed polarization whose ARBW is determined by the texture geometry, whereas existing antennas exhibit CP surface-current on radiators, which limit ARBW. The mechanism of the polarization conversion is theoretically analyzed for ARBW, and the experimental properties including the impedance matching, CP radiation pattern, axial-ratio pattern, ARBW, and two-port isolation are discussed.

The effect of the out-of-plane retardation (Rth) of a substrate film on the viewing-angle dependence of transmittance (TR) in a display device was investigated. When the polarization state of input light deviates from the transmission axis of the polarizer, Rth of the substrate film induces inhomogeneous viewing-angle dependence of TR. The inhomogeneity of TR gets worse for greater values of of Rth. The inhomogeneous TR profile can be eliminated by inserting compensation films, which convert the input polarization state to the linear polarization state parallel to the transmission axis of the polarizer.

We need two operation modes to obtain the complex hologram without bias and the conjugate image in the modified triangular interferometer(MTI). To solve the problem, we proposed the optimized MTI with one wave plate, which can obtain cosine and sine functions by the combination of one wave plate and one linear polarizer. In the extraction of phase term using the combination of polarization components, the phase error occurs, and we simulated such potential phase errors in the optimized MTI.

We synthesize and analyze the optical transfer function(OTF) of the modified triangular interferometer(MTI) using two-pupil synthesis method and we present the optimal MTI, which can obtain any bipolar function by combining a wave plate and a linear polarizer. Also, we analyze its potential phase error sources caused by polarization components.

We report the development of the equipment that can measure the transmittance of the polarizer for TFTLCD application versus azimuth angle of the linear polarization at each micro spot in the section, and therefore measure the degree of iodine permeation and alignment quantitatively at each area of the section.

The method to obtain four speckle patterns with relative phase shift of $\pi$/2 by passive devices such as two waveplates and a linear polarizer, and to calculate the phase at each point of the speckle pattern in shearography with a Wollaston prism is described. In this paper, we analyze its potential error sources caused by wave plates.

We make a simple electrically controllable linear polarization rotator over $360^{\circ}$ without loss by using a thick ECB(electrically controlled birefringence) liquid crystal cell and a quarter wave plate at 514.5 nm wavelength. Its operating principle can be analyzed and explained by using simple polarization analysis and experimental data. We demonstrate that the degree of polarization of the rotator is 0.964 and the temporal variation for 1 week lies within ${\pm}1$ degree. We can easily solve the problem of nonlinearity of the dependence of the rotational angle of linear polarization on the applied voltage by changing the utilized voltage range or its fitting curve.
