There is provided a display unit capable of reducing deterioration in the 3D characteristics. A phase difference device is bonded to a surface on a light outgoing side of a liquid crystal display panel. In the phase difference device, two kinds of phase difference regions with slow-axis directions different from each other are arranged in correspondence with each pixel. Each of the phase difference regions is arranged in contact with the phase difference region of a different kind, and a side section, of each of the phase difference region, that is in contact with the phase difference region of the different kind has waviness with an amplitude a that satisfies following expressions: 0< a<a max(φ) a max(φ)=−0.7/(φ−1.2)+0.35 φ=arctan( P /(4 d )) P: a pixel pitch d: a distance between the pixel and the phase difference device.
1. A display unit, comprising:
a display panel where a plurality of pixels are arranged in a matrix; and
a phase difference device bonded to the display panel, wherein
the phase difference device includes a phase difference layer where two or more kinds of phase difference regions having different slow-axis directions are arranged in correspondence with the respective pixels,
each of the phase difference regions is arranged in contact with the phase difference region of a different kind, and
a side section, of each of the phase difference regions, that is in contact with the phase difference region of the different kind has waviness with an amplitude a that satisfies following expressions
0< a<a max(φ)
a max(φ)=−0.7/(φ−1.2)+0.35
φ=arctan( P /(4 d ))
P: a pitch of the pixel
d: a distance between the pixels and the phase difference device.
