    Abstract: A method of fabricating a reactive mesogen (RM) guest-host polarizer is disclosed. The method includes forming an RM guest-host polarizer material on a substrate that promotes a substantially uniform planar alignment configuration of the RM guest-host molecules, forming a temporary layer on the RM guest-host polarizer material to align RM guest-host molecules of the RM guest-host polarizer material in the substantially uniform planar alignment configuration, performing polymerization of the RM guest-host polarizer material, and removing the temporary layer from the RM guest-host polarizer. The temporary layer includes at least one of a temporary fluid layer, a temporary particulate layer, a temporary gaseous layer, a temporary vacuum layer, and a temporary alignment substrate layer.

    Abstract: A liquid crystal display panel includes a first substrate, a second substrate, a liquid crystal layer, a first polarizing plate, and a second polarizing plate. The first substrate includes a first dielectric substrate, first and second electrodes, provided over the first dielectric substrate and configured to generate a transverse electric field in the liquid crystal layer, at least either of which has a plurality of slits, and a first alignment film placed in contact with the liquid crystal layer. The first substrate further includes an inorganic insulating layer provided between the second electrode and the first alignment film. The difference between the refractive index of the inorganic insulating layer and the refractive index of the second electrode is smaller than or equal to 0.20. The thickness of the inorganic insulating layer is greater than or equal to 50% of the thickness of the second electrode and greater than or equal to 40 nm.

    Abstract: A polarizer for use with a display device having a viewing area and a non-viewing area includes a patterned hydrophobic layer, a patterned lyotropic liquid crystal (LC) polarizer layer, a lyotropic LC polarizer alignment layer, a reactive mesogen (RM) quarter wave plate (QWP) layer, an RM QWP alignment layer, a substrate, and an adhesive. The patterned hydrophobic layer surrounds the patterned lyotropic LC polarizer layer. The patterned hydrophobic layer is wholly contained within the non-viewing area of the display device. The substrate is adjacent to the RM QWP alignment layer, and the adhesive is disposed between the substrate and the display device.
