Generally, an LCD is a display having two substrates and a liquid crystal layer therebetween. A plurality of electrodes are formed on the inner surfaces of one or both the substrates. A pair of polarlizers are attached to the outer surfaces of the substrates, and the liquid crystal layer serves as an optical switch. When a potential difference is applied to the electrodes, liquid crystal molecules are re-arranged according to the potential difference. The re-arranged liquid crystal molecules scatter the incident light that has passed through first polarizers, and change the transmission characteristics of the light, thereby controlling the transmittance of the light through second polarizers (analyzer) and displaying images.
