Liquid crystal display apparatus with touch-panel, and touch-panel
First Claim
1. A touch-panel equipped liquid crystal display apparatus having a display surface comprising:
- a polarizing plate A;
a ¼
wave plate a having a first film surface and a first slow axis within the first film surface;
a touch panel;
a ¼
wave plate B having a second film surface and a second slow axis within the second film surface; and
a liquid crystal cell that emits a light having a polarization axis extending in a direction, all disposed in the aforementioned order from the display surface, wherein;
the first slow axis within the first film surface of the ¼
wave plate A is in a horizontal direction of 0°
or in a vertical direction of 90°
as viewed from the display surface;
the second slow axis within the second film surface of the ¼
wave plate B is substantially at a diagonal position to the direction in which the polarization axis of the light emitted from the liquid crystal cell extends; and
the first slow axis of the ¼
wave plate A and the second slow axis of the ¼
wave plate B are nonparallel with each other without crossing at right angles.

Abstract
The touch-panel equipped liquid crystal display apparatus has a polarizing plate, a ¼ wave plate, a touch panel, a ¼ wave plate, and a liquid crystal cell, which are disposed in the above-mentioned order from the display surface side. The arrangement is made such that the polarization axis of the polarizing plate and the slow axis within the film surface of the ¼ wave plate make an angle of 45° substantially, and the slow axis within the film surface of the ¼ wave plate and the polarization axis of the emission light from the liquid crystal cell make an angle of 45° substantially. Further, the slow axes of the ¼ wave plates and are arranged not in parallel with each other, or not cross over at right angles.
