Abstract
An example embodiment of the present invention provides an anti-reflection film capable of providing low reflectability and designability, a method of producing the film, and a display device. Another example embodiment of the present invention relates to an anti-reflection film including a substrate and a resin layer on the substrate, the resin layer containing a plurality of cavities, the resin layer and the substrate having different refractive indexes from each other, the resin coat including a base portion and a plurality of protrusions on the base portion, the plurality of protrusions being integrally formed with the base portion, the base portion having a thickness that varies at least in one direction in a region.
Claims6
An anti-reflection film comprising:
- a substrate and a resin layer on the substrate,
- the resin layer containing a plurality of cavities,
- the resin layer and the substrate having refractive indexes that are different from each other by 0.001 to 0.2,
- the resin layer including a base portion and a plurality of protrusions on the base portion,
- the plurality of protrusions being integrally formed with the base portion,
- the base portion having a thickness that varies at least in one direction in a region,
- the film further comprising a body that is different from the resin layer and the substrate,
- Newton rings being generated by synthetic waves of light reflected on an interface between air and the resin layer and an interface between the resin layer and the substrate,
- the body being in contact with the resin layer and present at the center of the Newton rings,
- the thickness of the base portion being greater at a site farther from the body within a region including the body, wherein
- the region where the thickness of the base portion is greater at a site farther from the body does not have another body that is different from the resin layer and the substrate and in contact with the resin layer.
