ABSTRACT:
Pixel electrodes and active elements for supplying data signals to the pixel electrodes in accordance with control signals are formed on one of a pair of opposing transparent substrates, and a counter electrode is formed on the other substrate. An antiferroelectric liquid crystal having a small difference between a voltage for changing liquid crystal molecules from the first or second ferroelectric phase to an antiferroelectric phase as an intermediate aligned state between the first and second ferroelectric phase and a voltage for changing the liquid crystal molecules from the antiferroelectric phase to the first or second ferroelectric phase and having optical characteristics changing along a curve in accordance with the applied voltage is sealed between the substrates.
