Abstract
A reflective cholesteric liquid crystal display includes a display unit. The display unit includes a upper transparent substrate, a lower substrate, a upper transparent electrode pattern formed on the upper transparent substrate, a lower transparent electrode pattern formed on the lower substrate, a cholesteric liquid crystal layer sandwiched between the upper transparent electrode pattern and the lower transparent electrode pattern, and a light absorbing layer formed on the upper transparent substrate. The cholesteric liquid crystal layer is used for generating a visible light including a wavelength range. The light absorbing layer is used for absorbing light outside the wavelength range, so that the visible light in the wavelength range passes through the light absorbing layer and the upper transparent substrate.
