Abstract

In a reflector for a display to be placed on the back surface of a reflection-type display, the section of the reflector is made serrated so that the shape of the serration will be an isosceles or scalene triangle, and, at the same time, the serrated reflecting surface is finely roughened. The roughness of the finely roughened reflecting surface is so controlled that the center line average height Ra will be 1 micrometer or more and 6 micrometers or less and that the ten-point average height Rz will be 1 micrometer or more and 10 micrometers or less. By this, images displayed on a display into which the reflector is incorporated can be observed without being obstructed by surface-reflected light, and also brightly observed in a wide angle.
