In a liquid crystal display device, light transmitting through a liquid crystal layer is colored depending on the structural conditions of the liquid crystal display device. The phase of the transmission light is corrected by means of a phase correction plate to make the transmission light approximate achromatic color, thereby permitting monochromatic display or color display.
摘要:
A process for the manufacture of a liquid crystal container for a liquid crystal display element, which process comprises the steps of applying a low-melting glass frit paste to at least one of a pair of glass substrates, subjecting this glass substrate to primary firing in an open condition in which the paste is in no contact with any matters, and while holding the pair of the glass substrates in their accurate relative positions, subjecting the glass substrates to secondary firing to seal the pair of the glass substrates with the glass frit. The process preferably comprises the step of applying, prior to the step of secondary firing, a low-melting glass frit paste to one of the glass substrates so as to reliably hold the pair of the glass substrates in the accurate relative positions.

摘要:
A liquid crystal display device comprises a liquid crystal layer sandwiched between upper and lower electrode substrates subjected to aligning treatment. The liquid crystal layer includes a nematic liquid crystal added with a chiral material and has a 160.degree.-360.degree. twisted helical structure. A pair of polarizers are disposed adjacent to the electrode substrates with their polarization or absorption axes inclined by respective predetermined angles with respect to the aligning directions of the electrode substrates. At least one of the polarizers is formed by a color polarizer for compensating a wavelength dependence of transmittance (or the coloring due to birefringence) resulting from the anti-coincidence between the polarization or absorption axis of the polarizer and the aligning direction of the electrode substrate, i.e. an optical axis of liquid crystal molecules adjacent to the substrate, so that light emerging from the device becomes approximately achromatic or colorless.
