SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a polarized light source for illuminating a liquid crystal display panel, thereby improving the energy efficiency of the liquid crystal display. To achieve the above object, the present invention provides a polarized light source device, including: a light source, a reflector, a transparent substrate, an anti-reflection layer, and a plurality of metal grid lines. The reflector surrounds the light source to reflect light, and the reflector has an opening through which the light passes. The transparent substrate is disposed at the opening. The anti-reflection layer is disposed on the transparent substrate. The metal grid lines are arranged on the anti-reflection layer, so that light having a specific polarization direction can pass through the metal grid lines. The polarized light source according to the present invention can be installed in a liquid crystal display 'to illuminate the liquid crystal display panel of the liquid crystal display. Therefore, according to the polarized light source of the present invention, since it has a polarizing element, it can provide polarized light without reducing the energy utilization rate. In addition, this polarized light can directly pass through the polarizing film of the liquid crystal display, and the light absorbed by the polarizing film can increase the energy utilization rate of the entire liquid crystal display. Therefore, according to the backlight module or the light source of the present invention, expensive optical films are needed, which can improve the energy utilization rate of the overall liquid crystal display, increase the illumination of the liquid crystal display, and reduce the liquid crystal display.
