The present invention relates to an optical film.
従来、高い屈折率を有する光学膜としては、酸化チタン膜が用いられている。しかしながら、近年、反射防止膜等の膜数の低減や、高性能化が強く求められるようになってきており、それに伴い、酸化チタンの単体からなる酸化チタン膜(以下、実質的に酸化チタンのみからなる膜を「酸化チタン膜」とする。)よりも高い屈折率を有する光学膜が求められている。例えば、特許文献1には、酸化チタンに他の金属酸化物を添加した高屈折率誘電体膜が開示されている。
Conventionally, a titanium oxide film has been used as an optical film having a high refractive index. However, in recent years, there has been a strong demand for reduction in the number of films such as antireflection films and higher performance, and accordingly, a titanium oxide film made of a single titanium oxide (hereinafter, substantially titanium oxide only). An optical film having a higher refractive index than that of a “titanium oxide film” is demanded. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a high refractive index dielectric film in which another metal oxide is added to titanium oxide.

実施例3,4及び参考例4,5で得られた光学膜について、X線回折パターンを測定した。X線回折パターンを図4に示す。図4に示されるように、実施例3及び4の光学膜は、27.5度にルチル型結晶のピークが、ショルダーとして観察されている。従って、光学膜にはルチル型結晶が含まれていることが分かる。参考例4及び参考例5においては、このルチル型結晶のピークがほとんど認められなくなっている。 [Measurement of X-ray diffraction pattern]
The X-ray diffraction pattern was measured for the optical films obtained in Examples 3 and 4 and Reference Examples 4 and 5. An X-ray diffraction pattern is shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 4, in the optical films of Examples 3 and 4, a rutile crystal peak is observed as a shoulder at 27.5 degrees. Therefore, it can be seen that the optical film contains a rutile crystal. In Reference Example 4 and Reference Example 5, the rutile crystal peak is hardly observed.
