| 20090059136 | COMPOSITE POLARIZING PLATE WITH WIDE FIELD OF VIEW AND LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY - There is provided a wide viewing angle composite polarizing plate, comprising a linear polarization plate and an optical compensation film which comprises a transparent substrate showing an in-plane phase difference, and an optical anisotropic layer formed on one surface of the transparent substrate, said optical anisotropic layer being positive uniaxial and having an optical axis in a normal direction to the film, wherein, when the optical anisotropic layer side of said optical compensation film is used as the joint face, the phase retardation axis of the transparent substrate constituting said optical compensation film is substantially in parallel to the absorption axis of said linear polarization plate; and wherein, when the transparent substrate side of said optical compensation film is used as the joint face, the phase retardation axis of the transparent substrate is substantially orthogonal to the absorption axis of said linear polarization plate. | 03-05-2009 |
