WIRE GRID POLARIZER AND METHOD OF FABRICATING THE SAME

A method of fabricating a wire grid polarizer includes sequentially depositing a conductive wire pattern layer, and a plurality of guide patterns which forms one or more trenches therebetween on the conductive wire pattern layer, hydrophobically treating surfaces of the conductive wire pattern layer exposed in the trenches, and the guide patterns, coating the hydrophobically treated conductive wire pattern layer in the trenches with a neutral layer to partially fill the trenches, filling a remainder of the trenches with a block copolymer of two monomers with different etching rates, aligning the block copolymer filled in the trenches, selectively removing blocks of one monomer among the two monomers from the aligned block copolymer, and patterning the conductive wire pattern layer by using blocks of the other monomer among the two monomers remaining in the trenches and the guide patterns as a mask.
