REFLECTIVE POLARIZER, WINDSHIELD, INTEGRAL OPTICAL CONSTRUCTION AND METHOD FOR MAKING INTEGRAL OPTICAL CONSTRUCTION

A reflective polarizer includes a plurality of first layers disposed on a plurality of polymeric second layers. Each of at least 30% of the first layers includes at least 30% by weight of an inorganic material. For an incident light incident in a plane and a first incident angle, the reflective polarizer and the first layers have respective average optical reflectances Rand Rin a visible wavelength range and respective average optical reflectances Rand Rin an infrared wavelength range, R10%, when the incident light is polarized along a first direction; and for the visible wavelength range and for a second incident angle, the plurality of polymeric second layers has an average optical reflectance R() when the plane includes the first direction and an average optical reflectance R() when the plane includes a second direction, 5%
