Liquid crystal display device using cholesteric liquid crystal color filter and fabricating method thereof

A liquid crystal display device, comprising:

• first substrate having an inner surface;
• second substrate having an inner surface, wherein the inner surface of the second substrate faces and is spaced apart from the inner surface of the first substrate;
• a first polarizing plate arranged on an outer surface of the first substrate;
• a cholesteric liquid crystal color filter (CCF) layer arranged on the inner surface of the first substrate, wherein the CCF layer selectively transmits light having a wavelength range corresponding to one of red, green, and blue colors;
• a first transparent electrode arranged on the CCF layer;
• a first orientation film arranged on the first transparent electrode;
• a second transparent electrode arranged on the inner surface of the second substrate;
• a second orientation film arranged on the second transparent electrode, wherein the first and second orientation films have substantially the same orientation directions;
• a second polarizing plate arranged on an outer surface of the second substrate;
• a layer of liquid crystal material arranged between the first and second orientation films, wherein the layer of liquid crystal material includes a plurality of liquid crystal molecules having a substantially symmetrical orientation about a mid-point between the first and second orientation films;
• and
• a backlight unit arranged under the first polarizing plate.
