Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a liquid crystal display device low in cost, thin in thickness and capable of achieving a both-sided display. SOLUTION: A first and a second transmissive liquid crystal panels 11 and 12 are arranged so that their rear sides are allowed to face each other, and a backlight 3 capable of taking out light in both directions is arranged between the first and the second liquid crystal panels 11 and 12. In the case that the backlight 3 is composed of a cold cathode tube, a first and a second diffusion plates 21 and 22 are placed between the backlight 3 and the first and the second liquid crystal panels 11 and 12 respectively, and a control substrate 4 is arranged so as not to shield the light from the backlight 3 to the first and the second liquid crystal panels 11 and 12, thereby erasing a lamp image.
