Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail based on the illustrated embodiment. In FIGS. 1 to 3, 1.1° is the substrate, 2.
2° is the transparent conductive film formed on the substrates 1 and 1, respectively, and 3
3° is an alignment film made of PVA or polyimide rubbed on the transparent conductive film 2 in the direction indicated by the solid arrow a in FIG. The alignment film 4 made of PVA or polyimide rubbed in the indicated direction is made of a ferroelectric liquid crystal with a tilt angle of about 45° mixed with a dichroic black dye having absorption in the long axis direction. liquid crystal layer, 5 is liquid crystal layer 4
As shown in FIG. 2, a sealing material 6 seals between the substrates 1.1° and a red absorption axis m and a green absorption axis n that are orthogonal to each other and inclined at 45° with respect to the rubbing direction of the alignment films 3 and 3, respectively. This is a polarizing plate adhered onto a substrate 1 having a.

Since this liquid crystal display device is constructed as described above, an electric field E is applied to the liquid crystal layer 4 from the front side to the back side of the paper as shown in FIG.
When θ is applied, the liquid crystal moves counterclockwise from the rubbing direction.
# Shifted by 45 degrees and facing the direction that coincides with the red absorption axis m. When an electric field E° directed from the back side of the paper toward the front surface is applied to the liquid crystal layer 4, the liquid crystal shifts clockwise from the rubbing direction by θ°#45° and is oriented in a direction coinciding with the green absorption axis n. At this time, the pigments in the liquid crystal also face in the same direction as the liquid crystal, so only the component of the incident light perpendicular to the pigment passes through, so when the electric field E is applied by the polarizing plate 6, the red light is absorbed and only the green light is absorbed. When the light passes through the liquid crystal cell and an electric field E° is applied, the green light is absorbed and only the red light passes through the liquid crystal cell. Further, when the electric field E and the electric field E° are applied alternately, green light and red light alternately pass through the liquid crystal cell, so that a yellow color is displayed as a mixed color of these two colors. As is clear from the above description, by changing the method of applying the electric field to the liquid crystal layer 4, three types of color display, green, red, and yellow, can be obtained.

In the above-mentioned embodiment, the polarization characteristics of the polarizing plate 6 are described as green and red, but various other color displays can be obtained by appropriately selecting these colors. In addition, by alternating the application of the electric fields E and E° to obtain a mixed color, the saturation of the resulting mixed color can be appropriately changed by appropriately adjusting the alternating period.

1. As mentioned above, the liquid crystal display device according to the present invention is extremely useful as a display device, and can be used in various ways, since the liquid crystal display device according to the present invention can suitably select a combination of three types of color display using - liquid crystal cells. It becomes easy to respond to the diversification of display designs. Furthermore, since a ferroelectric liquid crystal is used, the response speed is improved to several hundred microseconds or less compared to several tens of meters5ec for general nematic liquid crystals, and this provides excellent followability to alternating electric fields applied to the liquid crystal, allowing mixed color display. It has the advantage that it can be scraped smoothly.
