Abstract
A liquid crystal electro-optical device has electrodes, a pair of substrates at least one of which is transparent, thin-film transistors provided on one of the pair of substrates, and a ferroelectric or antiferroelectric liquid crystal material, or a ferroelectric or antiferroelectric liquid crystal material mixed with a polymer compound held between the pair of substrates. A particular relationship is established between spontaneous polarization of the liquid crystal material, a capacitance between pixel electrodes, a pulse voltage applied to gates of the transistors, a time constant of a pixel, a residual pixel voltage immediately before application of the next pulse, and other parameters.
