- Table 1 shows the measurement results of the obtained optical laminate 1.
- Table 1 shows the measurement results of the obtained optical laminate 2.
- Layer B was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1 except that the unstretched laminate 3 obtained in Production Example 3 was used in place of the unstretched laminate 1 and the stretching ratio was 2.8 times in both the length and width directions.
- Optical laminate 3 with a thickness of 148 ⁇ m and a width of 350 mm was obtained.

- An optical laminate 4 was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1, except that the difference was 0.5 seconds and the stretching ratio was 2 times in both the vertical and horizontal directions.
- Table 1 shows the measurement results of the obtained optical laminate 4.
- the luminance unevenness was evaluated using this optical laminated body 4. As a result, the luminance unevenness (white spots) was observed when the front and right and left 40 ° forces were observed. However, no inversion of the characters was observed. When viewed from above and below by 40 °, uneven brightness was observed, and inversion of characters was observed.
- the optical laminate of the present invention As shown in the examples, when the refractive index in the thickness direction of the laminate is nz , and the refractive indexes in two directions perpendicular to each other perpendicular to the thickness direction are n and n, n> (n + n) / 2 Xyzxyxy represented by, (n -n) X d
- the variation of the front phase difference Re is within 10 nm, and the variation of the phase difference R40 when the light incident angle is 40 ° is within ⁇ 20 nm. Therefore, when this optical laminated body is used in a liquid crystal display device, it is possible to provide a good display which can eliminate luminance unevenness when viewed from a direction of 40 ° up and down and left and right only in the front direction.
- n> (n + n) / 2 satisfies a force (n-n) Xd. Is 40 °, the variation of the phase difference R40 is ⁇ 23 nm. For this reason, when this optical laminate was used for a liquid crystal display device, luminance unevenness was observed when viewed from the front direction and the left and right directions of 40 °, and inversion of the characters was observed when viewed from the vertical direction of 40 °.
