Abstract

A display assembly having opposingly disposed display surface and back surface is disclosed herein, which includes a pixel electrode substrate and a common electrode substrate. A liquid crystal layer is sandwiched between, and configured to be in a scattering state if an electric field is applied to, the pixel electrode substrate and the common electrode substrate. A light source at a lateral side of the display assembly generates, and emits into the display assembly, a linearly polarized light having a first polarization direction. A blocking member disposed at the side of the back surface is configured to block a light having the first polarization direction to, and to allow a light having a second polarization direction perpendicular to the first polarization direction to pass therethrough. A method for manufacturing the display assembly, and a display device including one or two display assemblies are also disclosed.
