Embodiment

As shown in Figure 1, the disclosed liquid crystal indicator of the utility model comprises a liquid crystal cells 1, in the present embodiment, phasic difference value scope circle of this liquid crystal cells 1 is between 500nm～1200nm, this liquid crystal cells 1 has an incidence surface 11 and an exiting surface 12 respectively, and this incidence surface 11 and exiting surface 12 are combined with polaroid 22 on the polaroid 21 and respectively.In the present embodiment, have at least one to be thin epitaxial (the thin crystal film:TCF) polaroid with polarized light property in this upper and lower polaroid, its penetrance family curve as shown in Figure 2.The incidence surface 11 of this liquid crystal cells 1 and exiting surface 12 respectively orientations (Rubbing) be formed with an incident light axis to A and an emergent light axis to B, and this upper and

lower polaroid

22,21 has a penetrating shaft respectively to 22B, 21A.The emergent light axis of this liquid crystal cells 1 is not overlapping to 22B, 21A with the penetrating shaft of upper and lower polaroid to A to B and incident light axis, and the penetrating shaft of this upper and lower polaroid to 22B, 21A respectively and the emergent light axis of liquid crystal cells to B and incident light axis to angle circle of A between-45 °～45 °.

In the conventional art viewpoint, the emergent light axis of liquid crystal cells must be overlapping to 22B, 21A with the penetrating shaft of upper and lower polaroid to A to B and incident light axis, can reach display effect.But, the inventor finds through experiment, change upper and lower polaroid penetrating shaft to go out with liquid crystal cells, incident light axis to, can change the phasic difference value of liquid crystal cells, make light source after reflecting, produce in various degree light leak, and then cause presenting of different background colors contrasts.Wherein, with the penetrating shaft of last polaroid 22 to the emergent light axis of 22B and liquid crystal cells to B deflection one angle, can change the byte color that drives when showing; And the penetrating shaft that will descend polaroid 21 is gone into optical axis direction A deflection one angle to 21A and liquid crystal display 1, can change the color of liquid crystal indicator background color, especially thin epitaxial (TCF) polaroid partly has the higher penetrating rate the short wavelength, be easy to arrange in pairs or groups out and be different from the color of general polaroid, thus, just can more easily reach the purpose that changes TN-MODEL LCD color.

For example: when phasic difference value scope circle of liquid crystal cells 1 between 800nm～1200nm, the penetrating shaft of last polaroid 22 is 45 ° to emergent light axis angle between B of 22B and liquid crystal cells, this moment, the background color of liquid crystal indicator can take on a red color, and was white in color and drive the byte that shows.

When phasic difference value scope circle of liquid crystal cells 1 between 800nm～1200nm, the penetrating shaft of following polaroid 21 is-45 ° to the angle of going between optical axis direction A of 21A and liquid crystal display 1, this moment, the background color of liquid crystal indicator was green, drove the byte that shows and was blue.

When phasic difference value scope circle of liquid crystal cells 1 between 400nm～650nm, and the penetrating shaft of going up polaroid 22 is 45 ° to emergent light axis angle between B of 22B and liquid crystal cells, this moment, the background color of liquid crystal indicator was blue, the byte that drives demonstration is white in color.

When phasic difference value scope circle of liquid crystal cells 1 between 400nm～650nm, the penetrating shaft of following polaroid 21 is-45 ° to the angle of going between optical axis direction A of 21A and liquid crystal display 1, this moment, the background color of liquid crystal indicator was yellow, drove the byte that shows and was black.

Hence one can see that, the utility model by change upper and lower polaroid penetrating shaft to the angle of orientation (Rubbing) direction of the going into of liquid crystal cells, exiting surface, the effect that the TN-MODEL LCD that allows script have optical activity is mixed birefringence (Birefringence), to change the phasic difference value of liquid crystal cells, make the white backlight source after refraction, make different wave length generation light leak in various degree, and then cause presenting of different background color contrasts, reach the purpose that changes TN-MODEL LCD color.
