- the thickness of the light control cell 30 is 100 micrometers or more and 800 micrometers or less, for example.

Air bubbles are less likely to occur between the second bonding layer 24 and the second bonding layer 24.
- the light control cell 30 is stacked on the second bonding layer 24. Since the light control cell 30 does not have rigidity, it can be laminated while pushing out the air between the light control cell 30 and the second bonding layer 24. Therefore, regardless of the thickness of the second bonding layer 24, bubbles are unlikely to be generated between the second bonding layer 24 and the dimming cell 30.
- the first bonding layer 23 is stacked on the light control cell 30.
- the first bonding layer 23 is provided by being applied by, for example, a dispenser.

- the first transparent substrate 21 is laminated on the first bonding layer 23. Since the second transparent base material 22 laminated on the first transparent base material 21 and the first bonding layer 23 has rigidity, a step is generated on the surface of the first transparent base material 21 stacked on the first bonding layer 23 If you do, air may get into the steps. However, if the first bonding layer 23 has a sufficient thickness, the first bonding layer 23 deforms and thereby enters the step, which makes it easy to discharge the air in the step. Therefore, it is preferable that the thickness of the first bonding layer 23 be a sufficient thickness, specifically 50 ⁇ m or more, in order not to leave air bubbles in the step.
- Each of the above steps is preferably performed in a low pressure environment or a vacuum environment. By this, it can suppress that a bubble mixes in the interface between each layer of the light control member 20. As shown in FIG.

- the pressure applied to the light control cell 30 due to the deformation of the first transparent base 21 and the second transparent base 22 due to the heat, the liquid crystal is unevenly distributed in the liquid crystal cell 35 of the light control cell 30.

- the first transparent base material 21 and the second transparent base material 22 may be deformed and peeled off from the first bonding layer 23 and the second bonding layer 24. Air can be generated as air enters.
- the moisture and the like contained in the first transparent base 21 and the second transparent base 22 become a gas, and the gas is the first transparent base 21 and the first bonding layer 23 It is thought that air bubbles may be generated by peeling and entering between the second transparent base material 22 and the second bonding layer 24 and between the second transparent base material 22 and the second bonding layer 24.
- the storage elastic modulus of the first bonding layer 23 and the second bonding layer 24 in a room temperature environment is 3 ⁇ 10 4 Pa or more, preferably 1 ⁇ 10 5 Pa or more, even if exposed to high temperature It was confirmed that peeling between the first transparent base 21 and the first bonding layer 23 and between the second transparent base 22 and the second bonding layer 24 was prevented, and the generation of air bubbles was suppressed.

- the transparent base material 155 having retardation is disposed between the incident side polarizing plate 151 and the output side polarizing plate 152 and light L1 is made incident from the incident side polarizing plate 151 side, it is transparent.
- the amount of light emitted from the output side polarizing plate 152 changes according to the retardation of the transparent substrate 155 as compared to the case where the substrate 155 is not disposed. That is, when the transparent substrate 155 having retardation is disposed between the incident side polarizing plate 151 and the output side polarizing plate 152, the visible light transmittance from the incident side polarizing plate 151 to the output side polarizing plate 152 is changed.
- the variation of the visible light transmittance varies depending on the wavelength. Therefore, the wavelength at which the visible light transmittance is high changes according to the retardation of the transparent substrate 155, and the light emitted from the output side polarizing plate 152 is visually recognized in a color according to the retardation of the transparent substrate 155.
- the polarization state of light transmitted through the transparent substrate 155 varies in accordance with the retardation at each position in the plane of the transparent substrate 155. For this reason, at each position in the plane of the transparent substrate 155, the wavelength at which the visible light transmittance is high changes. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 9, when the transparent base material 155 having a variation in retardation is disposed between the incident side polarizing plate 151 and the output side polarizing plate 152 and light L1 is made incident from the incident side polarizing plate 151 side, The light emitted from the output side polarizing plate 152 has high transmittance of light of different wavelengths at each position of the output side polarizing plate 152.
- the light emitted from each position of the output side polarizing plate 152 becomes light of different wavelengths, and the color varies, and is recognized as rainbow unevenness.
- Such rainbow unevenness is not dependent on the incident side polarizing plate 151 and the output side polarizing plate 152, and for example, even if the incident side polarizing plate 151 and the output side polarizing plate 152 are arranged in cross nicol, they are arranged in parallel nicols Even if, it will occur.
- the rainbow unevenness is caused by the fact that light in a polarized state is transmitted through a member having variation in retardation and is further changed in the polarized state.
- a polarizer such as a polarizing plate as shown in FIG. 9, light in a polarized state is generated in the following case.
- a polarization component p polarization component
- s polarization component a polarization component perpendicular to the incidence surface.
- the rates are different.
- light incident at a certain angle has a reflectance of zero for the polarization component parallel to the plane of incidence. That is, when incident light is reflected, the polarization state changes. This angle is known as the Brewster's angle. For example, at an interface of glass and air, light incident at an incident angle of about 60 degrees changes its polarization state when it is reflected.
- the light L3 incident on the windshield 5 at about 60 degrees changes its polarization state when it is reflected.
- the transparent substrate on the side facing the windshield 5 here, the first transparent substrate 121
- Rainbow unevenness occurs in accordance with the variation in retardation in the area overlapping the light control cell 130 of FIG.
- the suppression of the occurrence of rainbow unevenness can be achieved by avoiding the dispersion of the wavelength at which the transmittance increases at each position in the plane of the transparent substrate.
- the variation in retardation of the first transparent substrate 121 is set to 100 nm or less, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of variation in color that is visually recognized as rainbow unevenness.
- the change in visible light transmittance for each wavelength with respect to the change in retardation decreases. That is, even if there is a variation in retardation, the visible light transmittance for each wavelength hardly changes. Therefore, when the variation in retardation is sufficiently small, rainbow unevenness does not occur as much as visually confirmed.
- the average of retardation in a region overlapping with the light control cell 130 of the first transparent substrate 121 is 400 nm or less, preferably 200 nm or less, the variation of visible light transmittance for each wavelength according to the retardation is It becomes sufficiently small, and rainbow unevenness due to variations in retardation can be effectively made inconspicuous.
- the change in visible light transmittance for each wavelength with respect to the change in retardation increases.
- the retardation increases, light of a plurality of wavelengths is more likely to be transmitted, so the transmitted light is likely to be mixed and perceived. That is, even if there is variation in retardation, the visible light transmittance for each wavelength fluctuates greatly, so the transmittance for another wavelength is high even if the transmittance for a certain wavelength is low. For this reason, it is hard to visually recognize the change of the color mixing of the light to permeate
- the average of retardation in a region overlapping the light control cell 130 of the first transparent substrate 121 is 2000 nm or more, preferably 3000 nm or more, the variation of visible light transmittance for each wavelength according to retardation is Even if the visible light transmittance fluctuates due to the dispersion of retardation, the color mixture is visually recognized and it is difficult to visually recognize a change in color. That is, rainbow unevenness can be effectively made inconspicuous.
- region which overlaps with the light control cell 130 of the 1st transparent base material 121 is measured as follows. First, the transparent base material 155 as an object as shown in FIG. 9 is disposed between the incident side polarizing plate 151 and the output side polarizing plate 152, and light is made to enter from the incident side polarizing plate 151 side. Then, when observed from the side of the exit-side polarizing plate, the portion of the transparent base material 155 that is the object of the change in color when viewed visually is divided by 6 cm square.
- the incident side polarizing plate 151 and the output side polarizing plate 152 are arranged in parallel nicol, for example.
- the divided portion of the target transparent base material 155 is divided into three in the longitudinal direction and three in the lateral direction, and the retardation is measured at the respective central portions of the divided portions. That is, nine points of retardation are measured at equal intervals in the transparent substrate 155 partitioned by 6 cm square.
- the retardation can be measured by a parallel Nicol rotation method using KOBRA-WR (manufactured by Oji Scientific Instruments Co., Ltd.) or by a rotation analyzer method using RETS-1250VA (manufactured by Otsuka Electronics Co., Ltd.).
- the difference between the maximum value and the minimum value of the nine measured retardations is taken as the variation of retardation. Also, the average of the nine measured retardation values is taken as the average of the retardation.
- the light control member 120 of the second embodiment includes the first transparent base material 121, the light control cell 130 stacked on the first transparent base material 121, the first transparent base material 121, and the light control member 120. And a first bonding layer 123 for bonding to the optical cell 130.
- the light control cell 130 can adjust the visible light transmittance by electronic control.
- the difference between the maximum value and the minimum value of retardation in the region where the light control cells 130 of the first transparent base material 121 overlap is 100 nm or less. According to such a light control member 120, since the variation in retardation is small, it is possible to avoid that the wavelength of light with high transmittance is different at each position in the plane of the first transparent base material 121.
- the transmittance of the first transparent base material 121 has less variation due to wavelength, so that light emitted from the light control cell 130 has rainbow unevenness.
- the occurrence can be effectively suppressed. That is, the generation of rainbow unevenness caused by the retardation of the first transparent base material 121 in the light control member 120 can be suppressed.
- the first transparent base material 121 contains polycarbonate, and the average value of retardation in the region where the light control cells 130 of the first transparent base material 121 overlap is 2000 nm. It is above. According to such a light control member 120, since the retardation of the first transparent substrate 121 is sufficiently large, the change in visible light transmittance for each wavelength with respect to the change in retardation is large, and the transmitted light is mixed and perceived It will be easier. For this reason, even if the visible light transmittance fluctuates due to the variation in retardation, it becomes difficult to visually recognize a change in color that may cause rainbow unevenness. That is, the generation of rainbow unevenness caused by the retardation of the first transparent base material 121 in the light control member 120 can be suppressed.

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 17, when a member having retardation is disposed between the incident side polarization plate 271 and the emission side polarization plate 272 and the light L5 is made incident from the incident side polarization plate 271 side, the first transparent support Compared to the case where the body 230 is not disposed, the amount of light emitted from the exit side polarizing plate 272, that is, the visible light transmittance, changes according to the retardation of the member disposed between the polarizing plates. The change in the visible light transmittance varies depending on the wavelength.
- the wavelength at which the visible light transmittance is high changes according to the retardation of the member disposed between the polarizing plates, and the light L6 emitted from the output side polarizing plate 272 corresponds to the retardation of the member disposed between the polarizing plates It is visible in the color.
- the polarization state of light transmitted through a member having a variation in retardation at each position in the plane varies depending on the retardation at each position in the plane of the member. For this reason, the wavelength with high visible light transmittance changes at each position in the plane of the member. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 17, when a member having variation in retardation is disposed between the incident side polarizing plate 271 and the output side polarizing plate 272 and the light L5 is made incident from the incident side polarizing plate 271 side, the output side polarized light The light L 6 emitted from the plate 272 has high transmittance of light of different wavelengths at each position of the output side polarizing plate 272.

- Such rainbow unevenness does not depend on the arrangement of the incident side polarizing plate 271 and the output side polarizing plate 272, and for example, even when the incident side polarizing plate 271 and the output side polarizing plate 272 are arranged in cross nicol, parallel nicol Even if arranged by, it occurs.
- the rainbow unevenness is caused by the fact that light in a polarized state is transmitted through a member having variation in retardation, and is further changed in polarization state.
- the refractive index (n x ) in the direction in which the refractive index of the member is large (slow axis direction) and the refractive index (n in the fast axis direction) in the direction orthogonal to the slow axis direction the difference between y) (the n x -n y), the product (d ⁇ (n x -n y between the thickness of the member (d) [nm])) is defined by [nm].

- light incident at an incident angle of about 60 ° changes its polarization state when it is reflected.
- the light L3 incident on the windshield 5 at an incident angle of about 60 ° changes its polarization state when it is reflected.
- the transparent support on the side facing the windshield 5 here, the first transparent support 230

We have found that it can be effectively suppressed.
- the change in visible light transmittance for each wavelength of light transmitted through the member with respect to the change in retardation increases due to the difference in the transmittance of each polarization component.
- the retardation increases, light of various wavelengths is more likely to be transmitted, so the transmitted light is likely to be mixed and perceived.

- the retardation in the region overlapping the light control unit 250 of the first transparent support 230 is 4000 nm or more, the variation of the visible light transmittance for each wavelength according to the retardation becomes very large, and the retardation Even if the visible light transmittance fluctuates due to the variation, the color mixture is visually recognized and the color is difficult to be recognized.

Because the variation in visible light transmittance for each wavelength of light transmitted is increased due to the fact that there is a difference of 10% or more between the maximum value and the minimum value of transmittance in this wavelength range, in other wavelength ranges This is because it is considered that light of sufficient transmittance is generated and light of various wavelengths is transmitted.
