Azo compound, composition, film, laminate, and display device

An azo compound represented by the following formula (1):

• wherein in formula (1), L represents a divalent linking group or a single bond formed from at least one selected from the group consisting of a methylene group, an oxygen atom, and a carbonyl group;
• y represents an integer of 1 or 2;
• R1 represents one group selected from the group consisting of a methylamino group, an ethylamino group, a dimethylamino group, a diethylamino group, an ethylmethylamino group, a pyrrolidyl group, an oxazolidinyl group, a piperidyl group, a morpholino group, a methoxy group, and an ethoxy group, and a hydrogen atom of each of these groups may be replaced with a polymerizable group;
• R2, R3, and R4 each independently represent an aliphatic hydrocarbon group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, and a hydrogen atom of R2, R3, or R4 may be replaced with a polymerizable group;
• Q represents one group selected from the group consisting of —OC(═O)—, —C(═O)O—, —C═C—, —CH═CH—, —N═N—, —NHC(—O)—, and —C(═O)NH—;
• Ar1, Ar2, and Ar3 each independently represent a 1,4-phenylene group optionally having a substituent or a divalent sulfur-containing aromatic heterocyclic group optionally having a substituent;
• and
• when y is 2, two Ar3 may be the same or different.
