| 20090117378 | OPTICAL ELEMENT HAVING OPTICAL ADHESIVE LAYER AND POLARIZER - An optical element includes a polarizer having oriented vinylene segments; a substrate; and an adhesive layer disposed between the polarizer and the substrate, the adhesive layer comprising aliphatic urethane(meth)acrylate oligomer, (meth)acryl monomer, silane, and crosslinker, the crosslinker comprising ethylene glycol diacrylate and/or pentaerythritol triacrylate. The optical element can have additional layers such as hardcoat layers, additional adhesive layers, and/or additional substrates. A method of making the optical element is also disclosed, as are optical devices including the optical element. | 05-07-2009 |
| 20100033816 | ADHESIVES INHIBITING FORMATION OF ARTIFACTS IN POLYMER BASED OPTICAL ELEMENTS - Inhibiting formation of optical artifacts in a multi-layer film polarizer of an optical imaging assembly that includes a polarizing beam splitter. The beam splitter may include a multilayer reflective polarizing film having at least two materials, one of which may exhibit birefringence after uniaxial orientation; an adhesive disposed on the multilayer reflective polarizing film; and at least a first prism disposed on the adhesive. The adhesive may include a plasticizer for inhibiting formation of optical artifacts in the polarizing film. | 02-11-2010 |
| 20110051392 | LIGHT MANAGEMENT ASSEMBLY - The present application describes light management assemblies comprising a light transmissive plate, optical film, and a cover film which covers at least one major surface of the light transmissive plate. Optical film(s) may be adjacent or attached to the outside of the cover film or contained within the cover film between the light transmissive plate and the cover film. The present application also describes a method of making a liquid crystal display device using the light management assemblies described in this application. | 03-03-2011 |
