Abstract

In an optical reflector and a manufacturing method thereof, the reflector is superior in durability and has a high reflectivity to visible light, but not being conspicuous in color tone of reflection. The optical reflector comprises a glass substrate, on which are piled up a film of refractive index n , a film of refractive index n , a film of refractive index n , and a film of refractive index n , sequentially, wherein the thickness of the films are adjusted so that a relationship, n n n n is established among those refractive indices n , n , n and n The film of refractive index n is from 30 nm to 60 nm in the film thickness, a reflectivity to visible light is equal to or greater than 75% upon the surface of the film of refractive index n and the value {(a*) +(b*) } is from 0 to 10 when representing the color tone of reflected light upon this film by a* and b* (psychometric chroma coordinates).
