A TN liquid crystal 140 is used as a liquid crystal panel, and a polarizer 130 is provided above the TN liquid crystal 140 while a polarizer 135, a light scattering layer 150 and a polarized light splitter 160 are provided in this order under the TN liquid crystal 140. Furthermore, under the polarized light splitter 160, there is provided a light guide 190 for introducing light of a light source 191 from under the polarized light splitter 160 and a reflecting plate 200. The polarized light splitter 160 is a reflecting polarizer which can accomplish the effective utilization of light so that extremely bright reflective and transmissive displays are obtainable. Additionally, since a light diffusing layer 150 is provided, even if the distance from the TN liquid crystal 140 to the reflecting plate 200 is prolonged, in the reflective display, no double image nor display bleeding occurs. <IMAGE> |
