An optical modulation device comprises a first substrate having thereon a first conductor film, a second substrate having thereon a second conductor film disposed opposite to the first conductor film, and an optical modulation material disposed between the first and second substrates. The optical modulation device is driven by forming a potential gradient along the extension of the first conductor film or both the first and second conductor films, and applying an information signal to the first or second conductor film.

An object of the present invention is to maintain sufficient light extraction from an organic light emitting device and reduce reflection of external light. There are arranged a polarizing member, a prism member, a phase member, and an organic light emitting element which has an organic light emitting layer arranged between a pair of electrodes, in mentioned order from the side of a light extraction surface. When the prism member includes two sheets, the vertex angle of the prism member sheet arranged on the side of the organic light emitting element is preferably a vertex or less of the prism member arranged on the side of the light extraction surface. Furthermore, the prism members are preferably arranged so that pitch directions thereof are orthogonal to each other.

A liquid crystal composition includes at least one fluorine-containing mesomorphic compound (a) having a fluorocarbon terminal portion and a hydrocarbon terminal portion, and at least one optically active compound (b) having an optically active cyclic group and a terminal alkyl group free from a perfluorocarbon atom. The compound (a) and the compound (b) are mutually soluble readily to form a homogeneous liquid crystal composition. The liquid crystal composition shows a layer structure of so-called bookshelf or a layer structure having a small inclination angle (closer to bookshelf structure). The liquid crystal composition is useful in improving response characteristics and display characteristics, particularly a contrast ratio, of a liquid crystal device using the liquid crystal composition.

In a light emitting display apparatus, excellent color reproducibility and high luminance for an emission color having a low color purity and low emission efficiency are realized. An electroluminescent layer whose color purity and emission efficiency are to be improved is stacked as a first layer on a substrate, and is interposed between a reflective electrode layer and a semi-reflective electrode, and then light extracted from the electroluminescent layer is intensified by interference between a reflective surface in the reflective electrode layer and a reflective surface in the semi-reflective electrode.
