Abstract
A reflection liquid crystal display of the multilayered interference film type with both sufficient color purity and sufficient white level is provided using interference films having a large difference in refractive index, &Dgr;n, between two kinds of dielectric. In this reflection type liquid crystal display, at least two combinations of a transparent substrate, a multilayered film, and a light transmission layer, each for a different color, are stacked on a plane of the display. It is desirable that the difference between refractive indexes of the two different kinds of dielectric layers is &Dgr;n>1.2.
