- Patent Documents 1 and 2 disclose basic methods for producing a polarizer containing dispersed metallic silver particles having shape anisotropy.
- shape-anisotropic silver halide grains are obtained by precipitating silver halide grains by heat treating glass containing Ag and halogen (Cl, Br or I) as components, and then extruding or stretching the glass. Then, the glass is dispersed and contained, and then is subjected to a reduction treatment to obtain a polarizing glass containing dispersed shape anisotropic metallic silver particles.

It describes that the film is stretched while being controlled. However, as specific means for that purpose, it is only described to synchronize the rotation of a pair of rollers for stretching and to change the rotation speed of the rollers according to the amount of the base glass.
- Patent Document 8 describes a method of forcibly cooling only a central portion in the width direction by blowing a cooling gas from a nozzle on a glass sheet that is being stretched in a stretching process.
- forced cooling has the problem of complicating the control of the device if heating and cooling are performed simultaneously.
- the preform thickness is 3 mm or more
- the movement speed of the preform is set to 15 mm / min or less
- the take-up speed of the stretched glass sheet is set to 300 mm / min or less.

- the “polarization axis angle shift” means that the polarization at the portion of the polarizing glass increases as it moves away from the center line of the polarizing glass in the lateral direction (plus or minus direction) as shown in FIG. This means that the direction of the axis (absorption axis) is shifted obliquely with respect to the stretching direction.
