Method for improving visibility of liquid crystal display device, and liquid crystal display device using the same

A method for preparing a liquid crystal display device comprising

• (a) providing a backlight light source, a liquid crystal cell, a polarizer, and an oriented film,
• (b) disposing the polarizer on a viewing side of the liquid crystal cell, and
• (c) disposing the oriented film on a viewing side of the polarizer,
• Wherein
• the backlight light source is a white light source having a continuous emission spectrum,
• the oriented film comprises polyethylene terephthalate or polycarbonate,
• the oriented film has a retardation of from 4,000 nm to 30,000 nm,
• the range of an angle between an absorption axis of the polarizer and a slow axis of the oriented film is from 30 to 60 degrees,
• the oriented film has a property that, when the light from the backlight light source enters into crossed nicols wherein the oriented film is disposed in a diagonal position between the crossed nicols, the envelope curve shape of the spectrum of the transmitted light through the crossed nicols and the oriented film is similar to, and preserves, the shape of the emission spectrum of the backlight light source, and
• the total intensity for the wavelength range from 400 nm to 800 nm of the transmitted light from the crossed nicols and the oriented film is a quarter of the total intensity for the wavelength range from 400 nm to 800 nm of the light entering into the crossed nicols.
