Abstract: L'invention concerne des films et des revêtements optiques, et plus précisément un film ou un revêtement agissant comme réflecteur/diffuseur ou comme diffuseur composé d'un film ou d'un revêtement à ondulation monomère. Lorsque ce film ou ce revêtement est éclairé par une source lumineuse D65 standard CIE dans une direction donnée, et dans un angle d'observation d'au moins cinq degrés, la différence des coordonnées trichromatiques CIE (x, y) du réflecteur/diffuseur ou du diffuseur et du blanc BaSO4 standard n'excède pas 0.05, le gain de brillance comparativement au blanc BaSO4 standard étant au moins égal à deux. Les diffuseurs et les réflecteurs selon l'invention peuvent renvoyer la lumière incidente transmise ou réfléchie dans un cône optique à l'extérieur de l'angle de réflexion, sa forme étant définie par la topologie des gorges. La dimension (à la fois la période et la hauteur des gorges), le profil vertical des ondulations ainsi que leur répartition et leur fraction volumique peuvent être adaptés par un processus d'ondulation monomère (MC). Ledit film ou revêtement peut servir à contrôler la répartition spatiale d'une lumière transmise et réfléchie et à créer un état de polarisation et de blancheur déterminé.
