Title:
LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/083784
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is a liquid crystal display capable of realizing a quick responsibility, a high contrast ratio, a wide angle of visibility and a continuous gradation especially and altogether. The liquid crystal display is so made of a liquid crystal containing a compound having a bent structure to exhibit a smectic phase that the compound molecules have a longer axis forming a structure normal to a substrate, and is driven by applying an electric field in parallel with the substrate. The aforementioned bent structure is preferred to have an angular shape.
