ABSTRACT

Photoalignment of liquid crystal polarization grating based on optical imprinting is a promising technique for polarization grating mass production. However, when the period of the optical imprinting grating is in the sub-micrometer level, the zero-order energy from the master grating will become high, and it will strongly affect the photoalignment quality. This paper proposes a double-twisted polarization grating structure to eliminate the zero-order disturbance of master grating and gives the design method. Based on the designed results, a master grating was prepared, and the optically imprinted photoalignment of polarization grating with a period of 0.5µm was fabricated. This method has the advantages of high efficiency and significantly greater environmental tolerance than the traditional polarization holographic photoalignment methods. It has the potential to be used for large-area polarization holographic gratings production.

ABSTRACT

In this Letter, a contact polarization holographic photoalignment method is proposed. In the holographic recording, a phase mask is contacted with a photoalignment film, making light carrying wavefront information interfere with reference light in the near-field region to realize polarization holographic pattern recording with a sub-micrometer feature size. The relevant theoretical derivation is given, and holographic recording of a 0.4 µm feature-size phase mask is realized. The proposed method can conveniently realize liquid-crystal binary diffractive optical elements with a sub-micrometer feature size. Off-axis diffraction can also be realized by superimposing the grating information by changing the angle between the substrate and the interference light.

ABSTRACT

Holographic speckle screens with the Gaussian type distribution of scattered light, which are used to increase the viewing angle of the image in projection display systems, result in nonuniform image brightness in different observing positions. In this study, based on Helmholtz-Kirchhoff theory, a dual-beam scattering theory of rough surface is derived. By analyzing the spatial frequency spectrum of the scattered light, it is found that when two laser beams irradiated the ground glass at a certain angle, the resulting speckles recorded on the photoresist can generate a flat-top angular distribution of the scattered light. Speckle screens are fabricated by two light beams at different angles, and the angular intensity distribution of scattered light is measured. The results are in good agreement with the theory. Compared with the Gaussian type diffuser, the energy efficiency of the speckle screen proposed has a 46% increase when the angular luminance uniformity is set to be 80%, which effectively improves the brightness when used in a head up display system.
