Minimizing the spatial variation of polarization is critical to tiled AMLCD image quality. With the advent of large tiled AMLCD, low spatial frequency artifacts may become visible. Component birefringence variation of a few nanometers can produce viewer detectable luminance variations. Jones matrix formulation is used to model this effect and compare to experimental measurements.
