PURPOSE:To make the brightness of display very high by coloring transmitted light without using a color filter and making the transmissivity of the light high. CONSTITUTION:A pair of polarizing plates 41 and 42 is arranged in a state where a ferroelectric liquid crystal cell 30 obtained by sealing ferroelectric liquid crystal 38 between a pair of transparent substrates 31 and 32 on which transference electrodes 33 and 34 are formed is held between them. The transmission axis of the upper polarizing plate 41 of a pair of polarizing plates 41 and 42 is made nearly parallel with the oriented direction of liquid crystal molecules at the time of orienting the ferroelectric liquid crystal 38 in the cell 30 in either stable state of 1st and 2nd stable states, and the transmission axis of the lower polarizing plate 42 is made nearly parallel or nearly orthogonal with the transmission axis of the polarizing plate 41. |
