Abstract: The present invention provides a liquid crystal display device excellent in display qualities, capable of suppressing coloring of stains such as a fingerprint which has adhered to a surface of a display so that the stains are not recognized. The present invention is a liquid crystal display panel having a structure in which the first polarizer, the first substrate, a liquid crystal layer, the second substrate, and the second polarizer are stacked in this order toward a display surface, wherein the second polarizer includes an anti-reflective film on a display surface side, a reflection spectrum of the anti-reflective film having a bottom wavelength of less than 550 nm, at least one of the first and second substrates includes a color filter including three colors of blue, green, and red, and in the color filter, blue has the highest depolarization property of all the three colors.

Abstract: A liquid crystal display of the present invention contains a first panel and a second panel being stacked. Adjacent pairs of polarizers (A to C) disposed on the panels form crossed Nicols. When the first panel produces a display according to a first display signal, the second panel produces a display according to a second display signal obtained from the first display signal. Each of the two joined panels is provided with a light diffusion layer having a light diffusing property. The provision of the light diffusion layers enables reducing moire pattern occurrences which would otherwise markedly increase when two liquid crystal panels are stacked. As a result, the liquid crystal display has high display quality.

Abstract: An optical component including a protective film laminated on its front side and a separator on its back side, of which the front or back is easily identified, a front/back identifying method for the component, which is simple, and neither hinders other inspections nor destroys/scratches the component, and a front/back identifying device for the component. Using the device including an analyzer 6 for an optical component 1 configured such that when a crossed Nicols arrangement is formed between the component 1 and the analyzer 6, an amount or a hue of light transmitting through the arrangement when placed in the arrangement is a protective film 3 differs from that when placed therein is a separator 5, the front or back of the component 1 is identified by observing the light to identify which film is placed in the arrangement based on the amount or the hue of the light.

Abstract: The present invention provides an antireflective film, a polarizer, a liquid crystal display element, and a display element, each of which makes it possible for light reflected on a surface to which stains have adhered and on a surface where the stains have remained even after being wiped off to be recognized as an almost achromatic color, thereby suppressing the stains having adhered to the surface such as fingerprint from being recognized to shine in blue. The reflective display film of the present invention is an anti-reflective film which is placed on a base material and reduces light reflected on a surface of the base material, wherein a reflection spectrum of the anti-reflective film has a bottom wavelength of less than 550 nm.

Abstract: The liquid crystal display device of the invention includes: a liquid crystal layer taking on a roughly vertically aligned state in the black display state: first and second polarizing plates placed to face each other so that the transmission axes are orthogonal to each other; at least one first phase plate placed between the liquid crystal layer and the first polarizing plate and/or the second polarizing plate; at least one second phase plate placed between the first phase plate and the first or second polarizing plate whichever is farther from the first phase plate; and an illuminator for illuminating the liquid crystal layer with light via the first or second polarizing plate.
