Abstract
A wire grid polarizer (WGP) can have a conformal-coating to protect the WGP from at least one of the following: corrosion, dust, and damage due to tensile forces in a liquid on the WGP. The conformal-coating can include a silane conformal-coating with chemical formula (1), chemical formula (2), or combinations thereof: A method of applying a conformal-coating over a WGP can include exposing the WGP to Si(R)(R)(R). In the above WGP and method, X can be a bond to the ribs; each Rcan be a hydrophobic group; each R, if any, can be any chemical element or group; d can be 1, 2, or 3, e can be 1, 2, or 3, g can be 0, 1, or 2, and d+e+g=4; Rcan be a silane-reactive-group; and each Rcan be an alkyl group, an aryl group, or combinations thereof.
