Abstract

In a supertwist type liquid crystal display, a pair of upper and lower polarizers and polymer films are disposed in such an arrangement that the upper polarizer, first uniaxial oriented polymer film, second uniaxial oriented polymer film, supertwist type liquid crystal cell, third uniaxial oriented polymer film, first biaxial oriented polymer film and the lower polarizer are sequentially piled on in this order, and each of said first, second and third uniaxial oriented polymer films has a positive optical anisotropy and said first biaxial oriented polymer film has a negative optical anisotropy.
