Random depolarization films (RDFs) randomize the polarization states of light emitted from displays via birefringent dopant particles, thereby resolving blackout and color degradation problems when viewed through polarized eyewear. However, these particles inherently introduce haze through light scattering. Herein, we present an …

We demonstrate that a random depolarization film (RDF) effectively mitigates color degradation caused by interference colors in biaxially stretched poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) films. The RDF layered on the PET film spatially randomizes polarization across visible wavelengths, enabling real‐color reproduction across different light‐source …

In displays that use low-cost polymer films such as poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) as polarizer protective films, a color mura is caused by a slight amount of birefringence of the polymer film. To address the color mura, this study utilizes a random depolarization …

Most existing displays utilize polarization technologies to produce images and improve image quality. However, polarized light from displays causes color mura because of the birefringence of the polymer films used. Thus, eliminating color degradation remains a challenge despite the incorporation of complex …

The random depolarization film (RDF), a polymer film doped with birefringent particles, converts linearly polarized light to randomly polarized light. This paper shows that a novel RDF with controlled birefringence resolves polarization problems of the display such as blackout, color change, and …

Polarized light emitted from most displays causes blackout and color change problems when viewed through polarized sunglasses. These problems are addressed by random depolarization films (RDFs) doped with birefringent particles. These dopant particles, however, scatter light and degrade the sharpness of the …

Liquid-crystal and organic light-emitting diode displays emit linearly polarized light, which causes blackout and color change problems when the displays are viewed through polarized sunglasses. To address both the blackout and color change problems, we proposed a random depolarization film (RDF), a …

The random depolarization film (RDF), a polymer film doped with birefringent microparticles, solves polarization problems of displays. To design the RDF that realizes sharper images, the optimal dopant particle size and suitable display's pixel size were investigated based on modulation transfer function …

A Random Depolarization Film (RDF), a polymer film doped with birefringent microparticles, randomizes polarization of the light. This study analyzed depolarization effects of the RDF that contribute to realizing real-color displays. The first effect is to decrease a degree of polarization, which …
