High-contrast, thin-film polarizers based on dye-doped reactive liquid crystals (see figure) equal the polarization performance of conventional sheet polarizers at strongly reduced thicknesses. Advantageously, the guest-host polarizers can be patterned and applications are envisioned in liquid-crystal displays.
