PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a thin lightweight multilayer optical element capable of dispensing with the formation of an aligning film and excellent in production efficiency. SOLUTION: The multilayer optical element comprises a laminate having a birefringent layer (3) comprising a solid film of an aligned liquid crystal or a polymer layer containing an aligned liquid crystal on a polarizing layer (2) of <=5 μm thickness comprising a lyotropic liquid-crystalline dichroic dye or a lyotropic liquid-crystalline material containing a dichroic dye without interposing an aligning film. The liquid crystal display has the multilayer optical element on at least one side a liquid crystal display panel. The multilayer optical element optically compensates the TN type or VA type liquid crystal display panel and the liquid crystal display has a good display grade and a wide view angle. |
