20220001687 · 2022-01-06 ·

A transfer sheet is configured to include a base sheet; a releasable layer laminated on the base sheet, containing an ultraviolet curing resin, and including minute irregularities on at least part of a surface opposite to a surface in contact with the base sheet; a peeling layer laminated entirely on the releasable layer; and a single color solid print layer laminated in a section on the peeling layer corresponding at least to a region where the minute irregularities of the releasable layer are formed. A maximum width W of a recessed portion of the minute irregularities and a depth D of the recessed portion of the minute irregularities satisfy 10≤W/D≤50, W≤100 μm and 2 μm≤D≤10 μm. At least one of the number of recessed portions per unit area and the depth of the recessed portion changes stepwise.

PLATE, METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SAME, AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE
