LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY DEVICE

摘要

A novelliquid crystal display device is disclosed. The device comprises two polarizer films (1, 14), a liquid crystal cell disposed between these two polarizer films wherein liquid-crystalline molecules (7) are oriented substantially normal to the substrates under non-operative state in the absence of applied external electric field; at least one layer of a first optically-anysotropic having Re falling within a range from 40 to 150 nm at visible light; and at least one layer (10, 12) of a second optically-anysotropic layer having an optically negative refractive anisotropy, and having Re of 10 nm or less and Rth falling within a range from 60 to 250 nm at visible light.
