ABSTRACT:
A liquid crystal device comprising a liquid crystal cell including a plurality of pixels aligned on a plurality of lines and rows, each of the pixels composed of a pair of electrodes and liquid crystals provided between the pair of electrodes; and an optical unit including high-refractive portions positioned corresponding to the pixels, and low-refractive portions positioned next to the high-refractive portions on a plane, the high-refractive portions and the low-refractive portions having the refractive indexes the ratio between which satisfies the condition for total reflection of incident light. Another embodiment is a liquid crystal device comprising two liquid crystal cells wherein each of the cells exhibit monostable orientation.
