摘要： To facilitate a gradation transition from the last gradation to a current gradation, in a modulation driving processing section for correcting current image data, the gradation transition is facilitated in such a degree that an actual luminance of the pixel can be a luminance indicated by image data of a current frame in a state where the gradation transition is made to a sufficient level from the second last gradation to the last gradation. In the liquid crystal display panel, d2·γ/ΔV is set to be not larger than 41×10−6 [mm4/(V·s)] wherein d [μm] indicates a thickness of the liquid crystal layer in the liquid crystal panel, γ[mm2/s] indicates a flow viscosity when the liquid crystal panel is set to a temperature of 5° C., and ΔV[V] indicates a difference in liquid crystal layer application voltage between a maximum luminance display and a minimum luminance display. With this structure, under general use conditions of the liquid crystal display apparatus, an improved response speed can be realized by facilitating a gradation transition from the last gradation to the current gradation by means of one parameter, and a high display quality can be maintained.

摘要： A projection-type liquid crystal display is provided with an image-outputting section which includes a liquid-crystal panel. On the light-releasing side of the liquid crystal panel, an active-matrix substrate and a polarizing element are bonded to each other with a bonding material that has virtually the same refractive index as that of these members so as to reduce internal reflection on the light-releasing surface of the active-matrix substrate and external reflection on the light-incident surface of the polarizing element. Further, a reflection-reducing coating layer is formed on the light-releasing surface of the light-releasing-side polarizing element to reduce internal reflection on the light-releasing surface of the polarizing element.

摘要： The present invention provides a multi-domain type liquid crystal display device with a vertical alignment liquid crystal layer that can get a display operation done without making the viewer sense any unnaturalness and with the decrease in optical transmittance minimized. In the liquid crystal display device of this invention, the liquid crystal layer of each pixel has liquid crystal regions in which liquid crystal molecules tilt in multiple different directions when a voltage is applied between first and second electrodes. Each pixel has an opaque portion arranged on a boundary between the liquid crystal regions. The opaque portion is provided for at least one of the substrates so that when a voltage is applied between the first and second electrodes, the liquid crystal molecules neighboring the boundary will tilt while turning one of their end portions, which is closer to the substrate with the opaque portion, away from the boundary. The opaque portion includes a first shielding layer and a second shielding layer, which overlaps with the first shielding layer with a predetermined gap left between them.
