| 摘要 |
A liquid crystal display device includes: a first polarizing film; a first retardation region; a liquid crystal cell which includes a liquid crystal layer sandwiched between a pair of substrates, in which liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal layer are oriented parallel to surfaces of the pair of substrates at a time of black display; and a second polarizing film, a slow axis of the first retardation region is arranged orthogonally or parallel to a long axis of the liquid crystal molecule at a surface of the liquid crystal layer at a side of the substrate of the liquid crystal cell adjacent to the first retardation region in a state of no application of voltage, the liquid crystal cell operates in a lateral electric field mode, and the first retardation region includes a first retardation layer and a second retardation layer as defined herein. |
