    摘要: Waveguide based displays benefit from gratings which are capable of diffracting both S and P polarized light with high efficiency. While typical surface relief gratings (SRGs) diffract P polarized light efficiently, SRGs do not typically diffract S polarized light efficiently. One class of gratings that diffracts S polarized light with high efficiency is deep SRGs. One approach to producing deep SRGs is holographic polymer dispersed liquid crystal (HPDLC) gratings. In producing HPDLC gratings, a reactive monomer mixture is exposed to light in a polymerization process. Reactive monomer mixtures may include co-initiators and photo-initiator dyes. Co-initiators which include liquid amine synergist have been demonstrated to have advantageous results. Further, photo-initiator dyes with high extinction coefficients have demonstrated advantageous results.
