A liquid crystal display system includes a reflective liquid crystal display comprising a first orientation layer to impart a first direction (502) to a first region of a liquid crystal material and a second orientation layer to impart a second direction (504) to a second region of the liquid crystal material. A light source is optically coupled to provide linearly-polarized light, having a polarization direction (506), to the liquid crystal display. A viewing screen is optically coupled to receive light from the liquid crystal display. The first orientation direction and the second orientation direction are each rotationally offset by an rotational offset angle (508) from an optical mode (404,406) of the liquid crystal display in which the polarization direction bisects a twist angle defined by the first orientation direction and the second orientation direction of the orientation layers. <IMAGE> |
