Abstract
A liquid crystal display comprising a plurality of liquid crystal panels placed on a single plane of a large substrate, and a black matrix made of a photo-absorbing film that shows black when having absorbed light. Two polarizing plates are respectively placed to cover the front and rear surface of a set of liquid crystal panels almost entirely in such a manner that their polarizing axes intersect at right angles. The resulting multi-screen liquid crystal display consumes less power, retains excellent display quality, and makes the joints between the liquid crystal panels difficult to see.
