Abstract

An electrically controllable viewing angle switch device is provided with a first substrate, a second substrate, a liquid crystal layer, multiple spacers, and multiple light-shielding patterns. The first substrate and the second substrate are overlapped with each other. The liquid crystal layer and the multiple spacers are disposed between the first substrate and the second substrate. The multiple light-shielding patterns are disposed on the second substrate. The orthographic projection area of each spacer on the second substrate is less than or equal to the orthographic projection area of each light-shielding pattern on the second substrate. The orthographic projection of each spacer on the second substrate is located within the orthographic projection of each light-shielding pattern on the second substrate. A display apparatus using an electrically controllable viewing angle switch device is also provided, in which light leakage near the spacer is extremely slight.
