Optical properties of very thin metal films for laminated polarizers

Periodic metal-dielectric laminated layers have potential for making micropolarizers with high extinction ratios. In this paper we investigate the optical characteristics of metal films for a laminated polarizer (Lamipol). The optical characteristics of very thin metal films (
