LAMINATE, LIGHT CONTROL DEVICE, LIGHT CONTROL MEMBER, AND VEHICLE
Provided is a laminate which can not only control the amount of external light transmitted, but can also be used as a mirror. A laminate 1 comprises: a first liquid crystal member 100; a reflection type polarizing member 200; and a second liquid crystal member 300. The first liquid crystal member has first liquid crystal cells with changing orientation states, and a first absorption type polarizing member. The first liquid crystal cells can be switched: between a mode where one type of polarized light of the incident light is blocked and the other type of polarized light is transmitted, and a mode where one type of polarized light of the incident light is blocked and the other type of polarized light is shifted and then transmitted; between a mode where the incident light is transmitted as-is, and a mode where one type of the polarized light is blocked and the other type of polarized light is transmitted; and between a mode where one type of polarized light of the incident light is blocked and the other type of polarized light is transmitted, and a mode where one type of polarized light of the incident light is transmitted and the other type of polarized light is blocked. The reflection type polarizing member receives the light transmitted by the first liquid crystal member, transmits one type of polarized light of the incident light, and reflects the other type of polarized light. The second liquid crystal member has second liquid crystal cells with changing orientation states, and a second absorption type polarizing member. When the reflection type polarizing member has transmitted polarized light, the second liquid crystal cells can be switched between a mode where the polarized light is blocked and a mode where the polarized light is transmitted.
