<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To attain, for example, a high contrast of display in a liquid crystal display. <P>SOLUTION: This projector 10 or the like includes a light source 12 for emitting a light, a liquid crystal panel 15c with a liquid crystal comprising a pretilted liquid crystal molecule 51 sandwiched between a pair of substrates having respectively oriented films, for modulating the light, a pair of polarizing plates 15b or the like, the first phase difference plate 15a having (i-a) the first substrate, and (ii-a) the first vapor deposition film vapor-deposited obliquely on the first substrate, in order to incline the first optical axis of the first refractive index anisotropic medium along the first direction of negating a characteristic change of light due to pretilting, and the second phase difference plate 15e having (i-b) the second substrate, and (ii-b) the second vapor deposition film vapor-deposited obliquely on the second substrate, in order to incline the second optical axis of the second refractive index anisotropic medium along the second direction, different from the first direction, of negating a characteristic change of light due to the pretilting. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT |
