Local dimming enables us to achieve high dynamic range in LCDs, but can cause halo mura. In this study, we demonstrate vertically aligned dichroic dye film in unit cells which absorb light in oblique angles to eliminate halo mura. Placing this film above an analyzer significantly enhances local contrast ratio (CR) in oblique views and minimizes surface reflection in all LCDs.
