- FIG. 2 is a diagram for explaining the case where this pixel is lit.
- the liquid crystal display device 100 in the reflective mode, does not turn on the backlight unit and uses external light I0 to display an image. Specifically, as indicated by the row of arrows in the middle of FIG. 2, external light I 0 enters the liquid crystal display device 100 from the second polarizer 152 side, which is the viewing side. Since the incident external light is basically unpolarized, it is converted into linearly polarized light in the transmission axis direction of the second polarizer 152 by passing through the second polarizer 152 . The light converted to linearly polarized light passes through liquid crystal cell 106 .
- the liquid crystal cell 106 changes the alignment state of liquid crystal molecules by applying a voltage to the liquid crystal layer 180, thereby rotating the polarization direction of linearly polarized light and transmitting it. In the illustrated example, when the corresponding pixel is lit, the liquid crystal cell 106 rotates the polarization direction of the linearly polarized light by 90° and transmits the light.
- the linearly polarized light that has passed through the liquid crystal cell 106 enters the first polarizer 151 .
- the transmission axis of the first polarizer 151 is orthogonal to the transmission axis of the second polarizer 152 .

- the linearly polarized light transmitted through the first polarizer 151 enters the ⁇ /4 retardation layer 141 .
- the ⁇ /4 retardation layer 141 converts linearly polarized light transmitted through the first polarizer 151 into circularly polarized light. In the illustrated example, as an example, conversion into clockwise circularly polarized light (right circularly polarized light) will be described. The right-handed circularly polarized light converted by the ⁇ /4 retardation layer 141 enters the light-emitting layer 131 .
- the circularly polarized light incident on the light-emitting layer 131 includes a wavelength that excites the light-emitting layer 131 , such as ultraviolet (UV) light, and excites the light-emitting layer 131 .
- the light I 1 emitted by the light emitting layer 131 has no directivity and travels in various directions. Also, the emitted light I1 is unpolarized. Of the light I 1 emitted by the light emitting layer 131 , the light emitted toward the viewing side enters the ⁇ /4 retardation layer 141 as it is.
- the light emitted toward the backlight unit 101 enters the visible light reflecting layer 121 arranged between the light emitting layer 131 and the backlight unit 101, and is reflected toward the viewing side.
- the visible light reflecting layer 121 By having the visible light reflecting layer 121, the utilization efficiency of the light I 1 emitted by the light emitting layer 131 can be improved.

Since the light I 1 is non-polarized, the light I 1 passes through the ⁇ /4 retardation layer 141 while remaining non-polarized. The light I 1 that has passed through the ⁇ /4 retardation layer 141 enters the first polarizer 151 and is converted into linearly polarized light. The light converted to linearly polarized light passes through liquid crystal cell 106 . The liquid crystal cell 106 rotates the polarization direction of the linearly polarized light by 90° and transmits it.

Since the transmission axis of the second polarizer 152 is orthogonal to the transmission axis of the first polarizer 151 , the linearly polarized light I 2 whose polarization direction is rotated 90° by the liquid crystal cell 106 is transmitted through the second polarizer 152 . and emitted from the liquid crystal display device 100 .
- the excitation light may reach the light-emitting layer 131 without being blocked, but the light emitted by the light-emitting layer 131 is The light is converted into linearly polarized light by , passes through the liquid crystal cell 106 while maintaining the polarization direction, enters the second polarizer 152 , and is blocked. Therefore, the light emitted by the light emitting layer 131 is not emitted from the liquid crystal display device 100, and this pixel does not light up.
- the liquid crystal display device 100 can display an image by turning on or off each pixel with the liquid crystal cell 106 .
- the surface of the light-emitting layer 131 has the property of reflecting light, part of the external light is reflected on the surface of the light-emitting layer 131 . Since light in the visible light region is reflected on the surface of the light-emitting layer 131, when the light reflected by the surface of the light-emitting layer 131 is emitted from the viewing side of the liquid crystal display device 100, the difference in brightness and color between pixels is increased. The difference becomes small and the contrast is lowered.

That is, the left-handed circularly polarized light is converted into linearly polarized light with a polarization direction perpendicular to the transmission axis of the first polarizer 151 . Therefore, this linearly polarized light does not pass through the first polarizer 151 and is shielded. Thereby, it is possible to suppress the light reflected by the surface of the light emitting layer 131 from being emitted from the liquid crystal display device 100 .
- the backlight unit 101 lights up and emits light I3 having a wavelength that excites the light-emitting layer 131, eg, ultraviolet (UV).
- a wavelength that excites the light-emitting layer 131 eg, ultraviolet (UV).
- UV ultraviolet
- the backlight unit 101 lights up and emits light I3 having a wavelength that excites the light-emitting layer 131, eg, ultraviolet (UV).
- at least light having an excitation wavelength such as ultraviolet (UV) passes through the visible light reflecting layer 121 and enters the light emitting layer 131 .
- the light I 4 emitted by the light-emitting layer 131 enters the ⁇ /4 retardation layer 141 either directly or after being reflected by the visible light reflecting layer 121 .
- the light I 4 passes through the ⁇ /4 retardation layer 141 while remaining unpolarized.
- the light I 4 that has passed through the ⁇ /4 retardation layer 141 enters the first polarizer 151 and is converted into linearly polarized light.
- the light converted to linearly polarized light passes through liquid crystal cell 106 .
- the liquid crystal cell 106 rotates the polarization direction of the linearly polarized light by 90° and transmits it.
- the linearly polarized light that has passed through the liquid crystal cell 106 enters the second polarizer 152 .
- the linearly polarized light I 5 whose polarization direction is rotated 90° by the liquid crystal cell 106 is transmitted through the second polarizer 152 . and emitted from the liquid crystal display device 100 .

- the transmission mode if external light is present, the effects of the reflection mode shown in FIG. 2 are also superimposed. That is, the light-emitting layer 131 is excited by both external light and light from the backlight unit to emit light.
- the light-emitting layer 131 When there is external light, part of the external light is reflected on the surface of the light emitting layer 131, as in the case of the reflection mode described above. If the ⁇ /4 retardation layer 141 is not provided, the light reflected by the surface of the light-emitting layer 131 is emitted from the liquid crystal display device 100, resulting in a decrease in contrast, as in the case of the reflective mode. do. Moreover, in the transmissive mode, the light-emitting layer 131 is excited by both the outside light and the light from the backlight unit, so the amount of light emitted from the light-emitting layer 131 is greater than in the reflective mode.
- the ratio of the light emitted by the light-emitting layer and the light reflected by the surface of the light-emitting layer is different from that in the reflection mode.
- a color gamut difference occurs between the reflective mode and the transmissive mode.
- the liquid crystal display device 100 of the present invention has the ⁇ /4 retardation layer 141 between the first polarizer 151 and the light emitting layer 131 . Accordingly, even in the transmissive mode, it is possible to suppress the light reflected by the surface of the light emitting layer 131 from being emitted from the liquid crystal display device 100, thereby suppressing a decrease in contrast. In addition, since the light reflected by the surface of the light-emitting layer 131 can be suppressed from being emitted from the liquid crystal display device 100, the light emitted by the light-emitting layer and the light reflected by the surface of the light-emitting layer can be suppressed in the reflection mode and the transmission mode. The difference in ratio to light is reduced, and the difference in color gamut between the reflective mode and the transmissive mode can be reduced.
