PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a driving method and a device for a liquid crystal display which can rapidly be changed from a splay state to a bend state. SOLUTION: The liquid crystal display is driven by a driving system having a reset period wherein an array of liquid crystal held between an upper plate and a lower plate is applied with a voltage higher than a transition voltage to change from the splay state to the bend state and a normal driving period wherein the array is driven normally thereafter. The driving method of the liquid crystal display includes: a stage wherein a liquid crystal cell in the splay state is supplied with a reset voltage larger than a driving voltage in the normal driving period during the reset period to change the liquid crystal to the bend state; and a stage wherein the liquid crystal in the bend state is driven in the normal driving period.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a liquid crystal panel capable of controlling a viewing angle without degradation of brightness in an image. SOLUTION: The liquid crystal panel is provided with a plurality of color pixels, each of which includes red, green, and blue sub-pixels. Each of these color pixels includes an interference sub-pixel which is disposed on the same plane (or the same layer) as the color pixel to control light that is transmitted from the side directions of the liquid crystal panel, except the front direction thereof. The viewing angle can be controlled by the interference sub-pixels. Since the interference sub-pixels and the color sub-pixels are disposed on the same plane, the thickness and weight of the liquid crystal panel do not increase. Further, it is possible to prevent the decrease of the light quantity and also the degradation of the brightness. COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT
