Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a TN cell which contains a nematic liquid crystal having positive dielectric anisotropy and a twist angle of essentially 90.degree., between two substrates provided with electrode and alignment layers, where the product of the separation between the substrate plates d and the optical anisotropy d.multidot..DELTA.n [sic] of the liquid crystal is between 0.15 and 0.70 .mu.m, characterised in that the liquid crystal contains a doping component in order to improve the grey shade capacity, so that the cell has a value for the undisturbed quotient of the separation between the substrate plates d and the pitch of the liquid crystal p of 0.1.ltoreq.d/p.ltoreq.0.5.
