PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a liquid crystal electrooptical element, in which a good contrast is maintained even though the number of circuit element is increased, by arranging the selectively reflecting means, which reflects the light beams having first polarizing axis components and transmits light beams having second polarizing axis components that are orthogonal to the first polarizing axis components. SOLUTION: A liquid crystal cell is composed of liquid crystal molecules 7 which are held by a substrate 2 having a transparent electrode 3 and an alignment layer 4 and a substrate 2 having a reflective member 8, has a reflection function and an alignment layer 4, thorough seal sections 5. Then, a cubic type selectively reflecting member is arranged for the cell to oppose against the member 8 so that a selectively reflecting member 9 of the cubic type selectively reflecting member and a substrate surface 2 of the liquid crystal electrooptical element make a 45 degree angle. In th element, the incident direction of S polarized light beams 15 is located in a same side of the cell with respect to the member 9 and the direction makes 90 degrees with respect to the substrate surface of the cell. |
