摘要:
To provide a sight controllable display device that is capable of switching a regular display and a concealed display easily. A display panel and a modulator are disposed between two polarizing plates. The display panel performs a regular display drive. Meanwhile, the modulator drives to operate at a speed faster than twice the speed of the display panel and modulate the display image of the display panel. When displaying an image that is desired to be concealed, the period where the modulator is not in action is selected and viewed by a shutter. By stopping the action of the modulator, the regular display can be viewed as it is without the shutter.

A liquid crystal display having a wide viewing angle and easily manufactured. The liquid crystal display comprises an upper substrate and a lower substrate, and a liquid crystal material disposed between the upper substrate and the lower substrate. The liquid crystal display has a conductive protrusion disposed on the surface of the upper substrate opposing to the lower substrate. The conductive protrusion is disposed over a scanning electrode line or a signal electrode line and has the same potential as that of the upper electrode. As another structure, each of pixel electrodes on the lower substrate has a smaller area than that of a common electrode on the upper substrate and is covered by the common electrode, and each of the pixel electrodes comprises an electrode portion having approximately symmetrical shape.
摘要:
In a method for driving a liquid crystal display apparatus in which in each field, scan lines are successively scanned in order to display an image, the scanning sequence or the polarity of a signal voltage is reversed between a first field and a second field. A liquid crystal display apparatus driven by the method is also disclosed. It is possible to provide a high contrast, high brightness liquid crystal display apparatus which is not affected by electrical asymmetry.

摘要:
A liquid crystal display element including a first supporting substrate having a first orienting film for controlling liquid crystal molecules so that the molecules in adjacent orienting domains out of a plurality of orienting domains that are formed by dividing one display unit are oriented in directions that make an angle of 180.degree. with each other, a second supporting substrate having a second orienting film, and facing the first supporting substrate for controlling liquid crystal molecules so that the molecules are oriented in directions that make an angle of 90.degree. with the direction of orientation provided by the first orienting film, and setting a pretilt angle given to the molecules by the first orienting film at a value that is equal to or larger than that given to the molecules by the second orienting film. The second supporting substrate has the alignment in both regions in the same direction.
摘要:
A liquid crystal panel has a first layer of liquid crystal sandwiched between an upper substrate and a lower substrate and oriented in a first direction included within a plane substantially parallel to at least one of the upper substrate and the lower substrate. Liquid crystal molecules of the first liquid crystal in proximity of the upper substrate has a tilt angle in a reversed direction to that of liquid crystal molecules of the first liquid crystal in proximity of the lower substrate. A second layer of parallel-oriented liquid crystal is located in parallel to the first liquid crystal layer and has an orientation direction which is included within a plane of the second layer and is orthogonal to the first direction.
