Abstract
In a focusing screen having a large number of microlenses regularly arranged thereon, heights of microlenses are n different values. The microlenses having the same height are cyclically arranged. In another aspect, the heights of the microlenses in a similar focusing screen are randomly distributed over ranges centered on n central values, and the microlenses having the same central value are cyclically arranged. In still another aspect, in a method of manufacturing a focusing screen having micropatterned projections by a so-called proximity exposure method, dimensions of the micropatterns of the mask vary centered on the n different values, and the micropatterns having the same central values are cyclically arranged.
