<p>An improved liquid crystal display (100) includes overlapped electrical conductors (112, 114) in a picture element (pixel) region (123) of a liquid crystal material (11). The conductors (112, 114) are selectively defined so as to control the electric field (125) applied to the liquid crystal material (11) in a region (123) associated with the liquid crystal material (11). By controlling the electric field (125) in the region (123), the degree to which the molecules (13) in the liquid crystal material (11) rotate in response to the electric field (125) can be controlled. In this manner, the contrast of the liquid crystal material (11) in the region (123) may be selectively controlled to, for example, improve the contrast of the liquid crystal display (100) in multiple axes. <IMAGE></p> |
