| 20090213281 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR IMPROVED CONTRAST RATIO IN A PROJECTION SYSTEM - A system embodiment comprises an analyzer, a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD), and a compensation plate. The LCD allows, limits or blocks passage of polarized light as a projected image to the analyzer. The LCD includes a plurality of crystals that provide the LCD with a plurality of pixels, and the crystals in the LCD have non-ideal polarization states resulting from receipt and retardance of non-collimated incident angles of light. The non-ideal polarization states introduce unwanted phase shifts of the light in the projected image.
