DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of Industrial Application The present invention changes the transmittance by changing the applied voltage,
The present invention relates to a liquid crystal display device that performs screen display by adjusting gradations (shades of colors).

Conventional configuration and its problems Liquid crystals display a predetermined pattern by changing the transmittance of light, but when considering, for example, a #J image display, if it is a monochrome display, the transmittance changes By changing the gradation in several stages, the shading of the screen can be obtained. Furthermore, when considering color display using RGB, etc., if the transmittance of each filter is changed, multicolor display is possible by mixing the colors.

Conventionally, the method of obtaining such changes in transmittance is to divide the range of △■ = V2 - v1 into several stages as shown in Figure 1, and change the applied voltage to change the range depending on the difference in transmittance. He was in tune. However, in this method, due to the inherent characteristics of liquid crystal, ΔV cannot take a very large value, and accordingly, it is impossible to increase the number of gradations to many levels. Unfortunately, since v2゜■1 of liquid crystal varies depending on cell variations and ambient temperature, the gradation was even more pronounced.
