Claim Text:
1. A display apparatus comprising: a first substrate including a first electrode part; a first liquid crystal layer disposed on the first substrate; a second substrate disposed on the first liquid crystal layer, and including a color filter and a second electrode part disposed on a first surface of the second substrate facing the first substrate, and a third electrode part disposed on a second surface of the second substrate opposite to the first surface of the second substrate, wherein the first electrode part, the first liquid crystal layer, and the second electrode part form a first liquid crystal panel; a second liquid crystal layer disposed on the second substrate; a third substrate disposed on the second liquid crystal layer, and including a fourth electrode part disposed on a first surface, of the third substrate facing the second substrate, wherein the third electrode part, the second liquid crystal layer, and the fourth electrode part form a second liquid crystal panel that is different from the first liquid crystal panel; a first polarizing element of the first liquid crystal panel disposed under the first liquid crystal layer, with respect to a frame of reference in which the first substrate is considered to be under the third substrate; a second polarizing element of the first liquid crystal panel disposed over the first liquid crystal layer; and a phase retarding element disposed over the second liquid crystal layer, wherein the first polarizing element of the first liquid crystal panel is disposed under the first substrate of the first liquid crystal panel, and the second polarizing element of the first liquid crystal panel is disposed between the third electrode part of the second liquid crystal panel and the second liquid crystal layer of the second liquid crystal panel, and wherein the phase retarding element is integrally formed with the third substrate as a rigid body and the phase retarding element is patterned on a second surface of the third substrate opposite to the first surface of the third substrate.
