Abstract
An in plane switching liquid crystal display (2) includes a first substrate (220) and a second substrate (210) disposed opposite each other and spaced apart a predetermined distance. A liquid crystal layer is interposed between the first substrate and the second substrate, the liquid crystal layer containing a plurality of liquid crystal molecules (230). A plurality of pixel electrodes (213) and a plurality of counter electrodes (211) are formed on the first substrate in parallel alternating fashion. Two polarizers (240, 241) are disposed on the first substrate and the second substrate, respectively. A transflector (217) capable of transmitting and reflecting light beams is disposed on the first substrate. The in plane switching liquid crystal display can thus utilize ambient light beams as well as light beams provided by a backlight, so that the in plane switching liquid crystal display has low power consumption.
