A liquid crystal display device having a cholesteric liquid crystal (CLC)
color filter comprises a first substrate, a circular polarizer on the
first substrate, a cholesteric liquid crystal (CLC) color filter on the
circular polarizer, a first electrode on the cholesteric liquid crystal
(CLC) color filter, a second substrate spaced apart from the first
substrate, a second electrode beneath the second substrate, a liquid
crystal layer between the first and second electrodes, a back light under
the first substrate, a diffusive film on the second substrate, a
retardation layer on the diffusive film, and a linear polarizer on the
retardation layer.
