— A micro‐cone‐structure film was proposed to improve the viewing angle of reflective color LCDs, both in chromaticity and brightness. The simulation results show that the film works as a collimating layer when the light is incident from the bottom side of cone and as a scattering layer when the light is incident from the tip side. The viewing‐angle dependence of reflective interference color filters (RICF) is weakened dramatically by including such a film. The film is not only useful to RICF, but also to most reflective color LCD modes.
