Specifically, the type of aluminum forming the aluminum substrate 12, the type of projection material, the average particle size of the projection material, the pressure at which the projection material is discharged from the nozzle 82, and between the nozzle 82 and the surface of the mold substrate 10 And a speed v v for moving the nozzle 82 along the long axis direction of the mold substrate 10.
  • Embodiments of the present invention include, for example, an antireflective film for high-definition display panels, a method of manufacturing such an antireflective film, a mold for forming such an antireflective film, and the efficiency of such a mold. It is preferably used in a method that can be manufactured well.
