Reflection film, transparent screen, color filter, and decorative film

Abstract

The invention provides a reflection film in which generation of side lobes derived from a cholesteric liquid crystalline layer is suppressed. A reflection film of the invention includes: a first cholesteric liquid crystalline layer which is formed of a composition including a first liquid crystal compound; and a second cholesteric liquid crystalline layer which is disposed at least on one surface of the first cholesteric liquid crystalline layer and formed of a composition including a second liquid crystal compound, in which a helical pitch length of the first cholesteric liquid crystalline layer is constant, a birefringence Δn2 of the second liquid crystal compound is smaller than a birefringence Δn1 of the first liquid crystal compound, and a helical pitch number of the second cholesteric liquid crystalline layer is a half or less of a helical pitch number of the first cholesteric liquid crystalline layer.
