In an optical sheet 10 having a prism surface 16 formed by providing unit prisms 14 on the upper surface of a transparent base material 12, a coating layer 18 is provided on the reverse surface of the transparent base material opposite to the prism surface 16, spherical beads 20 are arranged projecting from the surface of the coating layer 18 by 1 to 10 .mu.m in height, and the coating layer 18 is brought into contact with the flat and smooth surface 22A of the light-transmissive material 22 through the spherical beads 20 which are put between them. The spherical beads are 1 .mu.m or less in half bandwidth of the distribution of particle diameters and are made uniform in height projecting from the coating layer 18.
An optical sheet which has one surface of its light-transmissive base material on which at least one of a group of plural unit prisms and a group of plural unit lenses is arranged and the other surface of it coated with a coating layer formed out of light-transmissive materials, wherein said coating layer is composed of a light-transmissive resin and light-transmissive fine particles dispersed in said light-transmissive resin, and at least part of said fine particles form a number of fine knoll-shaped projections of 1 to 10 .mu.m in height projecting from said surface by being projected from the opposite surface of said coating layer to the light-transmissive base material.
An optical sheet which has one surface of its light-transmissive base material on which at least one of a group of plural unit prisms and a group of plural unit lenses is arranged and the other surface of it coated with a coating layer formed out of light transmissive materials, wherein said coating layer is composed of a light-transmissive resin and light-transmissive beads which are dispersed in said light-transmissive resin, 1 to 10 .mu.m in particle diameter and 1 .mu.m or less in half bandwidth of the distribution of particle diameters, said coating layer having a first surface adjacent to said light-transmissive base material and a second surface opposite to the first surface, and at least part of said light-transmissive beads are projected from the second surface of said coating layer opposite to the light-transmissive base material and thereby many fine knoll-shaped projections of 1 to 10 .mu.m in height projecting from said second surface are formed and said coating layer is formed to be 2 to 20 .mu.m in thickness including said fine knoll-shaped projections, and the ratio of the refractive index of a material forming said light-transmissive beads to the refractive index of the light-transmissive resin in the coating layer is 0.9 to 1.1.
