The present invention is to increase transparency. A display device comprises a pair of transparent substrates which are separated from and face each other, a light modulation layer and a light source. The light modulation layer is arranged between the pair of transparent substrates, has determined refractive index anisotropy, and includes a plurality of light modulation elements which differ in responsiveness to an electric field generated by electrodes installed on the transparent substrates. The light source emits light of a determined color entering the light modulation layer from a side surface of the light modulation layer. When the electric field is not generated, the light modulation layer transmits the incident light emitted from the light source. When the electric field is generated, the light modulation layer scatters the incident light and emits the scattered light to the transparent substrates. |
