    Abstract: Provided is a reflective screen and a projection image display system in which a transmittance of light can be selectively changed, a transmittance in a transparent state is sufficiently high, a voltage does not need to be applied constantly, and a voltage is applied to decrease a transmittance of light in a case where the reflective screen is irradiated with video light. The reflective screen includes: a light reflecting layer that is formed of a cholesteric liquid crystal layer and where a selective reflection wavelength at a polar angle of 60° is present in a visible range, in which senses of helix of all of cholesteric liquid crystal layers are the same and Expression (1) is satisfied; and a transparent first electrode, a transparent second electrode, and a light control layer that are provided on a rear side with respect to the light reflective layer, the light control layer being disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode, in which the light control layer includes a polymer network and liquid crystal molecules and changes between a first state where light is scattered and a second state where transmission of light is allowed by changing a magnitude of a voltage applied, the polymer network having a three-dimensional net shape having a plurality of domains, and the liquid crystal molecules being positioned in the domains.

    Abstract: An optical laminate includes two optically anisotropic layers, an A-plate and a C-plate, in which the adhesiveness between the layers, the liquid crystal alignment of the C-plate, and the adhesiveness between the A-plate and a pressure-sensitive adhesive, are excellent. The optical laminate includes first and second optically anisotropic layers which are A-plate and C-plate formed of a first and second liquid crystal compound, respectively, and a mixed layer disposed between the layers, including components derived from the first and second liquid crystal compounds, and an optical alignment compound, in which a surface energy of the first optically anisotropic layer on a side opposite to the mixed layer is 25 mN/m or more, and where a component in a depth direction is analyzed with time-of-flight type secondary ion mass spectrometry while irradiating ion beams from a surface of the optical laminate on the first, toward the second, optically anisotropic layer.

    Abstract: Provided is a backlight unit capable of causing light that has exited from a light guide plate to be incident to a liquid crystal panel with high efficiency. The object is achieved by providing the backlight unit including a light source; a light guide plate that causes light to be incident to through an edge face and to exit through one of principal surfaces; and an optical film disposed on a surface of the light guide plate, the surface being on the opposite side of the light exiting surface, in which the optical film has a plurality of reflective polarizing elements each having a curved surface, and/or a plurality of reflective polarizing elements each having an inclined surface that is inclined with respect to the direction of light propagation of the light guide plate.
