Abstract
Polarizers, manufacturing methods thereof, and display panels are provided. The polarizer includes a substrate having an integrated structure. The substrate includes a first part and a second part disposed on a side of the first part. The first part includes lyotropic liquid crystal molecules and is dispersed with a dichroic material. The second part includes lyotropic liquid crystal molecules without the dichroic material. The first part functions as a polarization part of the polarizer, and the second part functions as a compensation part of the polarizer.
Claims17
A polarizer, comprising:
- a substrate, being an integrated structure and comprising:
- a first part, comprising lyotropic liquid crystal molecules and dispersed with a dichroic material;
- and
- a second part, disposed on a side of the first part and comprising lyotropic liquid crystal molecules without the dichroic material,
- wherein the first part functions as a polarization part of the polarizer, and the second part functions as a compensation part of the polarizer.
A display panel, comprising:
- an array substrate;
- a color filter substrate;
- a liquid crystal layer, disposed between the array substrate and the color filter substrate, and comprising liquid crystal molecules having birefringence characteristics;
- and
- a first polarizer, disposed on a side of the array substrate facing away from the liquid crystal layer;
- and/or
- a second polarizer, disposed on a side of the color filter substrate facing away from the liquid crystal layer,
- wherein each of the first polarizer and the second polarizer comprises:
- a substrate, being an integrated structure and comprising:
- a first part, comprising lyotropic liquid crystal molecules and dispersed with a dichroic material;
- and
- a second part, disposed on a side of the first part and comprising lyotropic liquid crystal molecules without the dichroic material,
- wherein the first part functions as a polarization part of the polarizer, and the second part functions as a compensation part of the polarizer;
- and
- wherein the polarization part of the first polarizer is disposed on a side of the compensation part of the first polarizer facing away from the array substrate, and the polarization part of the second polarizer is disposed on a side of the compensation part of the second polarizer facing away from the color filter substrate.
