Abstract

The invention provides a multilayer laminated film in which a birefringent layer comprising a first resin and an isotropic layer comprising a second resin are alternately laminated. The multilayer laminated film reflects light at a wavelength of 380-780 nm. A series of the birefringent layers has an optical thickness monotonically increasing region in which the 0.8×m th layer has an optical thickness of 140-180 nm, wherein the first and m th layers are the thinnest and thickest layers with optical thicknesses of 100 nm or more and 190 nm or less, respectively. A series of the isotropic layers has an optical thickness monotonically increasing region in which the 0.8×n th layer has an optical thickness of 150-280 nm, wherein the first and n th layers are the thinnest and thickest layers with optical thicknesses of 120 nm or more and 350 nm or less, respectively.

Claims (6)

1 . A multilayer laminated film comprising a multilayer laminate in which a birefringent layer comprising a first resin and an isotropic layer comprising a second resin are alternately laminated,

the multilayer laminated film being capable of reflecting light at a wavelength of 380 to 780 nm due to optical interference caused from the lamination structure of the birefringent layer and the isotropic layer,

a series of the birefringent layers having an optical thickness monotonically increasing region (first monotonically increasing region), wherein when the thinnest layer that has an optical thickness of 100 nm or more in the first monotonically increasing region is defined as the 1 st layer and the thickest layer that has an optical thickness of 190 nm or less in the first monotonically increasing region is defined as an m th layer, the 0.8×m th layer (if 0.8×m is not an integer, the ordinal of the rounded-off integer of 0.8×m) has an optical thickness in the range of 140 to 180 nm,

a series of the isotropic layers having an optical thickness monotonically increasing region (second monotonically increasing region), wherein when the thinnest layer that has an optical thickness of 120 nm or more in the second monotonically increasing region is defined as the 1 st layer and the thickest layer that has an optical thickness of 350 nm or less in the second monotonically increasing region is defined as an n th layer, the 0.8×n th layer (if 0.8×n is not an integer, the ordinal of the rounded-off integer of 0.8×n) has an optical thickness in the range of 150 to 280 nm.

2 . A luminance-improving member comprising the multilayer laminated film of claim 1 .

3 . A polarizer for a liquid crystal display, the polarizer comprising the multilayer laminated film of claim 1 .
