Abstract

Disclosed is a liquid crystal device comprising a pair of transparent substrates, transparent conductive films respectively disposed on the inner surfaces of the transparent substrates, and containment means containing a liquid crystal material in gaps interposed between the transparent conductive films, wherein an average refractive index (n.sub.a) of the liquid crystal material, a refractive index (n.sub.b) of the containment means, a total surface quantity (S) [.mu.m.sup.-1 ] of the gaps, and a distance (t) [.mu.m] between the transparent conductive films satisfy the following equation, EQU .vertline.n.sub.a -n.sub.b .vertline..times.S.times.t.gtoreq.4.2.
