Patent number: 7375887Abstract: An optical system and method for providing a visible light beam with a desired characteristic includes a visible light source producing a visible light beam defining an optical train. An optical element is disposed in the optical train to create a modified beam, and that is capable of introducing an undesired characteristic that continuously transitions across at least a portion of the modified beam. A wire-grid polarizer is disposed in the optical train, and has a plurality of elongated elements with at least a portion that continuously transitions to a different characteristic. The wire-grid polarizer is positioned and oriented in the optical train with the different characteristic corresponding to the undesired characteristic of the modified beam to obtain a visible light beam with a desired characteristic substantially across the visible light beam.Type: GrantFiled: November 24, 2004Date of Patent: May 20, 2008Assignee: Moxtek, Inc.Inventors: Douglas P.

Publication number: 20050206847Abstract: An image projection system has a wire grid polarizing beam splitter which functions as both the polarizer and the analyzer in the system. A light source produces a source light beam directed at the beam splitter which reflects one polarization and transmits the other. A liquid crystal array is disposed in either the reflected or transmitted beam. The array modulates the polarization of the beam, encoding image information thereon, and directs the modulated beam back to the beam splitter. The beam splitter again reflects one polarization and transmits the other so that the encoded image is either reflected or transmitted to a screen. The wire grid polarizing beam splitter is capable of being oriented at various incident angles with respect to the source light beam and modulated beam, and accepts relatively divergent light.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 8, 2005Publication date: September 22, 2005Inventors: Douglas Hansen, Raymond Perkins, Eric Gardner
