A liquid crystal electro-optic device.

摘要

A liquid crystal electro-optic device is disclosed. The liquid crystal electro-optic device is provided with means for optic compensation in order to realize black-and-white display. A high contrast black-and-white display is realized by providing two retardation films having anisotropy of refractive index for optic compensation so that an angle (a) formed by the drawing direction (12) of one of the two retardation films and an edge line (15) of a liquid crystal panel of the device and an angle (b) formed by the drawing direction (11) of the other one of the two retardation films and the edge line satisfy the expressions: (a)</=90 DEG ; (b)</=90 DEG ; and ¦(a)-(b)¦</=40 DEG . <IMAGE>
