Provided is a process for easily producing a wire grid polarizer showing a high polarization separation ability in the visible light region and having an improved transmittance in a short wavelength region. On a light-transmitting substrate 14 having a surface on which a plurality of ridges 12 are formed, an underlayer 22, first fine metallic wires 24 and second fine metallic wires 30 are formed by a vapor deposition method satisfying the conditions (A) to (F). (A) The underlayer material was vapor-deposited on a top face 16 and a first side face 18 of each ridge 12 from a direction of an angle ¸ L . (B) The underlayer material is vapor-deposited on the top face of a first underlayer 22a and a second side face 20 from a direction of an angle of ¸ R on the opposite side to that of the condition (A). (C) ¸ L and ¸ R are from 60° to 90°. (D) The height Hma1 of the underlayer 22 is from 1 to 20 nm. (E) A metal or a metal compound is vapor-deposited on the top face of the underlayer 22 and a bottom face 28 of each groove 26. (F) The height Hma2 of each first fine metallic wire 24 and the height Hp of each ridge satisfy a relation 40 nm‰¦Hma2‰¦0.9×Hp.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a wire grid type polarizing element exhibiting high environmental property and more uniform optical characteristics compared to the prior arts, and to provide a method for manufacturing the polarizing element.SOLUTION: The wire grid type polarizing element includes a substrate, metal layers formed into stripes in a plan view on one surface of the substrate, first dielectric layers covering side faces and top portions of the metal layers, and second dielectric layers formed on the first dielectric layers and having an absorptivity to visible light higher than that of the first dielectric layers. Each of the second dielectric layers includes a first member disposed on one side face of two side faces in a lateral direction of the first dielectric layer, and a second member disposed on the other side face of the first dielectric layer, wherein the first member and the second member are overlapping at the top of the first dielectric layer.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a liquid crystal display device where a liquid crystal display panel is uniformly transmission-illuminated and display light L has a desired chromaticity. SOLUTION: An illuminating means 19 includes a first light-emitting element 20 for emitting first light L1 having a first color and a second light-emitting element 21 for emitting second light L2 having a second color, and illuminates the liquid crystal display panel 18 with illumination light L3 including the first light L1 and second light L2. A polarizing member 27 reflects the illumination light L3. A detecting means 28 detects the illumination light L4 having transmitted through the polarizing member 27, and outputs chromaticity data. A controlling means 56, based on the chromaticity data, adjusts the power supplied to at least one of the first light-emitting element 20 and the second light-emitting element 21. The polarizing member 27 is formed of a wire grid polarizing plate. COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT
