TEST METHOD FOR MEASUREMENT OF FPD POLARIZING FILMS
This test method was technically approved by the Global Flat Panel Display Committee and is the direct
responsibility of the Japanese FPD Materials and Components Committee. Current edition approved by the
Japanese Regional Standards Committee on April 28, 2003. Initially available at www.semi.org May 2003;
to be published July 2003.
1 Purpose
1.1 This standard establishes implementation
guidelines for the measurement of visual appearance,
thickness, and optical characteristics of FPD Polarizing
Films. These methods can be applied in manufacturing,
quality control, and research and development.
2 Scope
2.1 This document specifies measurement methods.
2.2 Specifies measurement methods for visual
appearance (dot defects, line defects, visual exclusion
area), thickness, optical characteristics (single
transmittance, parallel transmittance, cross
transmittance, UV cut performance, polarization
efficiency, hue a, b and hue a*, b* and haze) of
polarizing films.
NOTICE: This standard does not purport to address
safety issues, if any, associated with its use. It is the
responsibility of the users of this standard to establish
appropriate safety and health practices and determine
the applicability of regulatory or other limitations prior
to use.
