Retardation film and mehtod for manufacturing the same, optical function film, polarizer film, and display device

摘要

A main object of the present invention is to provide a highly reliable retardation film without the problems of peeling off of the retardation layer from the base material or the like generated in the case of forming the retardation layer, capable of easily obtaining an optional retardation value even for a small amount, and capable of improving the adhering property with a hydrophilic film such as a polarizing layer. In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention provides a retardation film, comprising a polymer film containing a material having refractive index anisotropy, wherein the material having refractive index anisotropy has a concentration gradient in a thickness direction of the polymer film.
