  • Patent number: 8917452
    Abstract: Measurement reference lengths of length and width are set with respect to a convex structure, and an average of vertical distances between tip points and bottom points inside a measurement reference area is calculated as an average height. An average of horizontal distances between the tip points and bottom points is calculated as an average distance. A value obtained by dividing the average height by the average distance provides a gradient ratio. An inverse tangent of the gradient ratio provides an average gradient angle. When the average gradient angle ranges from 5 degrees to 15 degrees and a standard deviation of average gradient angle ranges from 30% to 40% of the average gradient angle, a regular reflectance at a regular reflection angle with respect to incident light of an angle of 30 degrees from a normal direction of the film surface is 1% or less.
