Abstract
An object of the present invention is to provide a thin optical laminate a refractive index of which is three-dimensionally controlled. The optical laminate of the present invention comprises a retardation layer containing a polycyclic compound having at least one of a —SOM group and a —COOM group, and having an index ellipsoid satisfying a relationship of nx≦nz>ny; and a retardation layer having an index ellipsoid satisfying a relationship of nx≧ny>nz. As the polycyclic compound, for example, a quinoxaline derivative represented by the following formula (I) is used.
