Patent ID: 7956965

Claim:
A vertically aligned liquid crystal display comprising: a first polarizing plate and a second polarizing plate having absorption axes perpendicular to each other; a vertically aligned panel provided between the first polarizing plate and the second polarizing plate, wherein the vertically aligned panel includes vertically aligned liquid crystals having negative dielectric anisotropy; one or more first +A-films and one or more first +C-films provided between the first polarizing plate and the vertically aligned panel, wherein the first +C-film is positioned between the first polarizing plate and the first +A-film, and wherein an optic axis of the first +A-film is perpendicular to the absorption axis of the first polarizing plate; one or more second +A-films between the second polarizing plate and the vertically aligned panel, wherein an optic axis of the second +A-film is perpendicular to the absorption axis of the second polarizing plate, and wherein the first +A-film has an in-plane retardation value ranging from 180 nm to 250 nm at a wavelength of 550 nm, the first +C-film has a thickness retardation value ranging from 200 nm to 600 nm at a wavelength of 550 nm, and the second +A-film has an in-plane retardation value ranging from 10 nm to 150 nm at a wavelength of 550 nm.
