Zusammenfassung:A reflective liquid crystal display device includes a pair of substrates and a liquid crystal layer interposed therebetween. The liquid crystal layer includes a liquid crystal material and a dichroic dye contained therein, and long axis of liquid crystal molecules near the substrate is substantially parallel to the substrate. A plurality of parameters of the reflective liquid crystal display device are set so that a product KMcd of a value KM, a dye concentration c and a thickness d of the liquid crystal layer satisfies the following relationship: 3.OS2-7.3S+5.7 ≤ KMcd ≤ 14.7S2-15.1S+6.15, wherein, the value KM is a value defined by absorption coefficients for linearly-polarized light substantially parallel to and perpendicular to the liquid crystal molecules, and an order parameter S of the liquid crystal layer.
