A first light diffusion layer (1) and a second light diffusion layer (2) are provided. The first light diffusion layer (1) is formed by dispersing a first light diffuser (1B) comprising fine particles in a first base material (1A) formed of transparent resin by 20 to 50 wt %, the fine particles of the first light diffuser having a refractive index different from that of the first base material by 0.07 to 0.17 and having a weight average particle diameter of 1 to 12 μm, and the first light diffusion layer having a thickness of 50 to 200 μm. The second light diffusion layer (2) is formed by dispersing a second light diffuser (2B) comprising fine particles having a weight average particle diameter of 1 to 12 μm in a second base material (2A) formed of transparent resin by 0.1 to 10.0 wt %, and the second light diffusion layer having a thickness of 500 to 5000 μm and a Haze value of 50 to 85%.
A rear projection screen onto which an optical image formed on a light valve having picture element portions arranged in a matrix form is projected, comprising at least a first light diffusion layer and a second light diffusion layer, said first light diffusion layer being disposed nearer to said light valve than said second light diffusion layer, wherein said first light diffusion layer comprises a first base material formed of transparent resin and a first light diffuser formed of transparent fine particles contained in said first base material by 20 to 50 wt %, the difference in refractive index between said first base material and said first light diffuser being equal to 0.07 to 0.17, the weight average particle diameter of said first light diffuser being equal to 1 to 12 μm, the thickness of said first light diffusion layer being set to 50 to 200 μm, and said second light diffusion layer comprises a second base material formed of transparent resin and a second light diffuser which is formed of transparent fine particles having a weight average particle diameter of 1 to 12 μm, the thickness of said second light diffusion layer being set to 500 to 5000 μm and the haze value of said second light diffusion layer being set to 50 to 85%.
A rear projection screen onto which an optical image formed on a light valve having picture element portions arranged in a matrix form is projected, comprising at least a first light diffusion layer and a second light diffusion layer, said first light diffusion layer-being disposed nearer to said light valve than said second light diffusion layer, wherein said first light diffusion layer comprises a first base material formed of transparent resin and a first light diffuser formed of transparent fine particles contained in said first base material by 20 to 50 wt %, the difference in refractive index between said first base material and said first light diffuser being equal to 0.07 to 0.17, the weight average particle diameter of said first light diffuser being equal to 1 to 12 μm, the thickness of said first light diffusion layer being set to 50 to 200 μm, and said second light diffusion layer comprises a second base material formed of transparent resin and a second light diffuser which is contained in said second base material by 0.1 to 10.0 wt % and formed of transparent fine particles having a weight average particle diameter of 1 to 12 μm, the thickness of said second light diffusion layer being set to 500 to 5000 μm.
