Abstract
A display element includes a dielectric material layer, provided between a pair of substrates (substratesand), which is made of a medium showing optical isotropy when no electric field is applied and showing optical anisotropy when an electric field is applied. Further, comb-shaped electrodesandare provided face to face on the substrateso as to be positioned in a surface which faces the substrate. Furthermore, polarizing platesandare respectively provided on rear surfaces with respect to the counter surfaces of the substratesand Thus, it is possible to realize the display element which has a wide driving temperature range, a wide viewing angle property, and a high-speed response property.
