Reflective color SIN ‐ LCDs are one of the most suitable displays for personal digital assistant applications, but their image quality has not yet reached the level to satisfy users' needs. Their image quality depends on many parameters such as absorption axis of the polarizer, optical axes and retardation of two retarders. A new optimization method is developed to improve image quality taking account of the polarization states of the light after reflection at the reflector.
