Problems solved by technology

However, the problem with this approach is that it is difficult to adjust
[0007] At the same time, at present, the angle between the absorption axis of the polarizing film and the slow axis of each phase difference plate is adjusted according to the product, and a widely applicable way to optimize this angle has not been found yet.

Embodiment 2

[0192] The elliptically polarizing plate A01 was overlaid to measure the contrast. Table 1 shows that elliptically polarizing plates have a relationship represented by the expression β=2α+44°. For this elliptical polarizer, when the contrast ratio is 10, the minimum angle in all directions is 40°, the maximum angle is 50°, and the difference between the maximum and minimum angles is 10°. In actual use, when the contrast ratio in all directions is 10, the minimum angle of 40° is the preferred level. Moreover, the difference between the maximum and minimum angles is only 10°, so the elliptical polarizer has balanced visual characteristics, which is also a very preferable level in practical use.

Embodiment 3

[0194] The elliptically polarizing plate A21 was overlaid to measure the contrast. Table 1 shows that elliptically polarizing plates have a relationship represented by the expression β=2α+44°. For this elliptical polarizer, when the contrast ratio is 10, the minimum angle in all directions is 40°, the maximum angle is 60°, and the difference between the maximum and minimum angles is 20°. In actual use, when the contrast ratio in all directions is 10, the minimum angle of 40° is the preferred level.
