Abstract: The present disclosure provides a reflective polarizer including a plurality of polymeric first layers and a plurality of polymeric second layers. A plot of an average layer thickness versus a layer number for the pluralities of polymeric first, but not second, layers includes a knee region separating a left region including at least 50 sequentially arranged polymeric first layers. The polymeric first layers have lower layer numbers, and the average layer thickness increases with increasing layer number from a right region including at least 5 sequentially arranged polymeric first layers. The polymeric first layers have higher layer numbers and the average thickness increases with increasing layer number, such that linear fits to the at least 50 sequentially arranged polymeric first layers and to the at least 5 sequentially arranged polymeric first layers have respective positive slopes S1 and S2, S2/S1 ≥ 5.

Abstract: An optical film includes a plurality of alternating first and second polymeric layers, such that the first polymeric layers have a smaller average in-plane index of refraction than the second polymeric layers and the first polymeric layers have a glass transition temperature of at least 107 deg. C. The optical film may be a reflective polarizer. An optical stack includes a linear absorbing polarizer and the reflective polarizer disposed on, and bonded to, the absorbing polarizer. The reflective polarizer has an optical reflectance of at least 60% for a first polarization state and an optical transmittance of at least 60% for an orthogonal second polarization state. When heated at 105 deg. C for 15 minutes, a difference in shrinkage of the reflective polarizer and the absorbing polarizer along the first and second polarization states is greater than about zero and 0.2%, respectively.

Abstract: A partial reflector including a plurality of optical repeat units where each optical repeat unit includes first and second polymer layers is described. A refractive index difference between the first and second polymer layers along a first axis may be Any, a refractive index difference between the first and second polymer layers along an orthogonal second axis may be Δηχ, where |Δηχ| is at least 0.1 and |Δny| is no more than 0.04. The optical repeat units may have a smallest optical thickness Tl proximate a first side of the optical stack and a largest optical thickness T2 proximate an opposite second side of the optical stack, where (T2-T1)/(T2+T1) is in a range of 0.05 to 0.2, and T2 is at least 350 nm and no more 1250 nm. The partial reflector may be used in a circular polarizer for correcting color shift with view angle in a display.

Abstract: Optical films are disclosed that include a plurality of interference layers. Each interference layer reflects or transmits light primarily by optical interference. The total number of the interference layers is less than about 1000. For a substantially normally incident light in a predetermined wavelength range, the plurality of interference layers has an average optical transmittance greater than about 85% for a first polarization state, an average optical reflectance greater than about 80% for an orthogonal second polarization state, and an average optical transmittance less than about 0.2% for the second polarization state.

Abstract: An optical metasurface film includes a flexible polymeric film having a first major surface, a patterned polymer layer having a first surface proximate to the first major surface of the flexible polymeric film and having a second nanostructured surface opposite the first surface, and a refractive index contrast layer including a refractive index contrast material adjacent to the nanostructured surface of the patterned polymer layer forming a nanostructured bilayer with a nanostructured interface. The nanostructured bilayer comprising a plurality of nanostructures disposed on the flexible polymeric film. The nanostructured bilayer imparts a light phase shift that varies as a function of position of the nanostructured bilayer on the flexible polymeric film. The light phase shift of the nanostructured bilayer defines a predetermined operative phase profile of the optical metasurface film. A light reflecting layer is in optical communication with the nanostructured bilayer.
