| 20100245772 | OPTICAL FILTER, PROJECTION DISPLAY, AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING OPTICAL FILTER - An optical filter capable of removing an unnecessary component of incident light. The optical filter has a transparent body of a flat plate-like shape. A plurality of filtering layers, each that separate an unnecessary polarization component of incident light from a necessary polarization component, are formed within the transparent body in series and at uniform intervals with an angle inclination relative to the travel direction of incident light. A plurality of light-absorptive layers are formed within the transparent body in series and at uniform intervals between the filtering layers to absorb an unnecessary component reflected by the filtering layers. | 09-30-2010 |
