Abstract: A glass polarizer applicable to projection-type liquid crystal displays and the like and having an excellent transmittance and extinction ratio with respect to light in the visible light region (500 nm to 600 nm) using silver halide containing glass as a starting material is provided. A glass polarizer for visible light according to the present invention is a polarizer manufactured by heating and stretching borosilicate glass in which silver halide particles are dispersed and deposited by heat treatment and reducing at least a portion of silver halide particles oriented and stretched in the glass to produce metallic silver particles. An average transmittance (T? % 500 to 600 nm) in a wavelength range of 500 nm to 600 nm of light having a polarization plane perpendicular to a longitudinal direction of metallic silver particles having shape anisotropy that is uniaxially oriented and dispersed is 75% or more and an extinction ratio in the wavelength range is 25 dB or more.

Abstract: A glass polarizer having an excellent transmittance and extinction ratio with respect to light in the visible light range including blue using silver halide containing glass as a starting material is provided. A manufacturing method according to the present invention to manufacture glass polarizers is characterized in that borosilicate glass in which silver halide particles are dispersed and deposited by heat treatment is reduced to generate metallic silver particles from at least a portion of silver halide and then, heated for stretching to generate silver halide particles oriented and stretched in the glass.
