Abstract

A twisted nematic field effect mode liquid crystal display cell comprises a liquid crystal layer sandwiched between front and rear substrates on which transparent electrodes are formed, a front polarizer disposed in front of the front substrate, and a rear polarizer disposed at the back of the rear substrate. The rear substrate comprises a glass plate, and the front substrate comprises a fiber plate. The fiber plate comprises a plurality of optical fibers of which axes are perpendicular to the plane determined by the liquid crystal layer.
