Liquid crystal display unit

Abstract

The visibility of a reflective display panel is improved by providing reflection enhanced films 4 and 5 on the glass surfaces of the reflective display panel, a bright reflective liquid crystal display unit having less reflected images and high contrast can be obtained. Of liquid crystal display units that do not use polarizing plates or color filters, on the surfaces of transparent glasses 1 and2 of a liquid crystal display unit using holographic polymer dispersed liquid crystal (HPDLC), cholesteric liquid crystal, chiral nematic liquid crystal, or mixed liquid crystal 3 composed of cholesteric and chiral nematic liquid crystal, reflection enhanced films 4 and 5 are respectively provided, thereby reflection from the glass surfaces is successfully suppressed without reducing incident light, reflected images becomes less, and contrast becomes high, thus providing brightness and improved visibility.
