1. A liquid crystal panel comprising:

  • a first substrate which is disposed on a side on which external light is incident and on which is formed at least one first electrode;

    a second substrate which is disposed facing said first substrate and on which at least one second electrode is formed;

    a liquid crystal layer which is inserted between opposing surfaces of said first and second substrates and which operates in a light-transmitting state and a light-scattering state, based on a voltage applied between said at least one first electrode and said at least one second electrode; and

    at least one, transparent layer disposed between said liquid crystal layer and said at least one second electrode in a light-incident direction;

    wherein said at least one transparent layer is formed of a material having a refractive index that differs from the refractive index of said at least one second electrode.
