2. Description of the Related Art Retardation films are films having birefringence that allow linearly polarized light components vibrating in mutually perpendicular principal axis directions to pass therethrough and give a required retardation between the two components.
By imparting specific optical characteristics, such a retardation film serves as an optical compensation film for expanding the viewing angle of a liquid crystal display device. Several conventional techniques for producing such a retardation film have been reported. For example, Japanese Patent Registration No. 2640083 describes a phase film in which discotic liquid crystals are obliquely arranged by a rubbing alignment film and an SiO oblique vapor deposition alignment film. In addition, JP-A-10-
No. 332933, a retardation film composed of a rubbing alignment film, a film in which a liquid crystal polymer having positive birefringence is obliquely arranged on a SiO oblique vapor deposition alignment film, and a layer of a negative refractive index ellipsoid. Is listed. Further, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2000-121831 describes a retardation film in which biaxial refractive index ellipsoids obtained by obliquely vapor-depositing tantalum pentoxide are obliquely arranged. However, in these reports, in order to improve the viewing angle characteristics of the liquid crystal display device,
Two tilted uniaxial index ellipsoids or biaxial index ellipsoids are arranged between the liquid crystal cell and the polarizing plates on both sides, one in total.

The inventor has conducted an optical simulation for a layered medium having birefringence using the Mueller method.
A retardation film (index ellipsoid) required to obtain a viewing angle expansion effect for a 90 ° twisted nematic liquid crystal cell even with one sheet was calculated. As a result, such a retardation film has a constant inclination angle with respect to the normal axis of the film surface, and in the observation of the retardation from each observation direction around the normal axis, the retardation has a maximum value and a minimum value. The observation direction shown is a refractive index ellipsoid each having one around the normal axis, or a negative index such as a laminated film or a TAC film in which the refractive index ellipsoid and the biaxially stretched film are orthogonally bonded to each other. It has been found that the effect of enlarging the viewing angle of a 90 ° twisted nematic liquid crystal cell can be obtained by combining the layers having the refractive index ellipsoids.

Further, in the above-mentioned refractive index ellipsoid which can obtain the effect of enlarging the viewing angle of the 90 ° twisted nematic liquid crystal cell, two positive refractive index ellipsoids are inclined and oriented, and the length when projected onto each film surface is long. It has been found to be obtained when the axes or short axes are orthogonal to each other. Also, depending on the characteristics of the liquid crystal cell, the tilt angle of each index ellipsoid is 10 °.
It was found that even from 80 ° to 80 °, the effect of enlarging the viewing angle was obtained, and above all, it was preferable that the inclination angle was from 30 ° to 60 °. Although the effect of enlarging the viewing angle can be obtained even when the tilt angle is 80 ° or more, the larger the tilt angle, the more the film thickness of the retardation film is required, and the practicality is lacking. On the other hand, 10 °
In the case of the following, a sufficient viewing angle expansion effect cannot be obtained.
Furthermore, if the difference between the maximum value and the minimum value of the phase difference is between 30 nm and 200 nm, a viewing angle widening effect can be obtained, and more practically, it is preferably between 60 nm and 100 nm.

In addition, an alignment film is formed on the base material to bend-align the liquid crystalline material
It is also possible by forming two films which are obliquely oriented and films which are obliquely vapor-deposited with a dielectric material and are made to be obliquely oriented at right angles to each other, or by forming obliquely oriented layers on the front and back surfaces of the substrate so as to be orthogonal to each other.

FIG. 4 shows the observation results of the phase difference from each observation direction around the normal to the cell surface of a general 90 ° twisted nematic liquid crystal cell when a voltage is applied. From the figure, it can be seen that in the 90 ° twisted nematic liquid crystal cell, the phase difference changes depending on the azimuth angle, which causes the viewing angle dependence of the liquid crystal display device. FIG. 5 shows the incident angle and cell surface normal of a 90 ° twisted nematic liquid crystal cell under the application of this voltage, the retardation film of the present invention and a negative birefringent layer of an appropriate thickness. The simulation result in each observation direction around the direction is shown. From this figure, it is understood that the change in the magnitude of the retardation due to each observation direction around the cell surface normal direction is suppressed, and the viewing angle dependence of the liquid crystal display device can be improved by the retardation film of the present invention.

The optical characteristics of such a retardation film are
It is designed according to the optical characteristics of the liquid crystal display device on which the retardation film is mounted. Further, for optical compensation of the liquid crystal display device, it is necessary to adjust the phase difference of the optical anisotropic element in consideration of the phase difference of all the optical systems constituting the device including the polarizing plate. The combination of a layer having a negative refractive index ellipsoid such as a TAC film can improve the viewing angle expansion effect. The following example is an example in which a retardation film having one maximum and one minimum of the present invention was produced.
