DISPLAY WITH A REFLECTIVE LC PANEL, AND THE DISPLAY METHOD

摘要

A display includes a reflective Liquid Crystal (LC) panel having an LC layer, an optical unit having a light source, and a transmission plate unit stacked on the reflective LC panel. The transmission plate unit includes a first transmission plate and a second transmission plate that have respective and different indexes of refraction. Light incident on a first side of the first transmission plate is totally internally-reflected by a boundary between the first transmission plate and the second transmission plate, and travels through the first transmission plate to the reflective LC panel. The LC layer of the reflective LC panel reflects the incident light of spectra corresponding to pixel signals in order to display a video.
