As means for providing wide viewing angle of a liquid crystal display devices by changing the angle made by the alignment direction and the strip-shaped portions, a phase difference applied in the liquid crystal layer can be matched for every sub pixel area displaying each color. According to the aspect of the invention, by changing the angle made by the alignment direction of the alignment layer and the strip-shaped electrodes for every sub pixel area, the phase difference applied in the liquid crystal layer can be matched for wavelength region of displayed color in sub pixel area. Accordingly, the voltage applied between the pixel electrode and the common electrode when luminance becomes the maximum in each sub pixel area becomes equal and white display in which color is reduced can be performed.

A reflective liquid crystal display device employing only one sheet of polarizer film. An optical compensator of a hybrid tilt type having retardation rc is disposed between a liquid crystal cell and the polarizer film disposed only on one side of the liquid crystal cell. When an effective voltage von is applied to the liquid crystal cell, the retardation rc of the optical compensator is determined to accomplish the following relation: ron+rc=&lgr;/4+m·&lgr;/2(m=0, 1, 2 . . . ) Or ron+rc=(m+1)·&lgr;/2(m=0, 1, 2 . . . ) where ron is retardation of the liquid crystal layer and &lgr; is the optical wavelength. This disclosure enables the a reflective liquid crystal display device with brighter white display, higher contrast, achromatic monochrome display, and broader viewing angle to be constructed.
