Abstract

Provided is an organic EL display device including an optical laminate, and a foldable device formed of the organic EL display device. The optical laminate includes a glass plate, a first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, a polarizer layer, a second pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, and an optically anisotropic layer in this order, in which the glass plate has a thickness of less than 100 μm, the polarizing layer is formed of a composition for forming a polarizing layer which contains a liquid crystal compound and an organic dichroic material, a distance A between the first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer and the polarizer layer is 10 μm or less, and a distance B between the polarizer layer and the second pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is 10 μm or less.

Claims (33)

1. An optical laminate comprising:

a glass plate;

a first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer;

a polarizer layer;

a second pressure-sensitive adhesive layer; and

an optically anisotropic layer in this order,

wherein:

the glass plate has a thickness of less than 100 μm,

the first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer has a thickness of 100 μm or more,

the polarizer layer is a polarizer layer formed of a composition for forming a polarizer layer which contains a liquid crystal compound and an organic dichroic material,

a distance A between the first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer and the polarizer layer is 10 μm or less,

a distance B between the polarizer layer and the second pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is 10 μm or less,

in a case where two or more pressure-sensitive adhesive layers are provided between the glass plate and the polarizer layer, the first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer denotes a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer closest to the polarizer layer among the two or more pressure-sensitive adhesive layers provided between the glass plate and the polarizer layer, and

in a case where two or more pressure-sensitive adhesive layers are provided between the polarizer layer and the optically anisotropic layer, the second pressure-sensitive adhesive layer denotes a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer closest to the polarizer layer among the two or more pressure-sensitive adhesive layers provided between the polarizer layer and the optically anisotropic layer.

2. The optical laminate according to claim 1 ,

wherein the second pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is an adhesive layer.

3. The optical laminate according to claim 2 ,

wherein the adhesive layer is an adhesive layer formed of a PVA-based adhesive or a UV adhesive.

4. The optical laminate according to claim 1 ,

wherein a functional layer is provided in at least one of between the first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer and the polarizer layer or between the polarizer layer and the second pressure-sensitive adhesive layer.

5. The optical laminate according to claim 1 ,

wherein the polarizer layer has a thickness of 10 μm or less.

6. The optical laminate according to claim 1 ,

wherein the optically anisotropic layer is formed by being coated with a liquid crystal composition.
