You mean like this?

It's a transmissive passive matrix TN display. Same as you get in
calculators or watches, except it controls the amount of light that can come
through from the backlight, rather than how much is reflected. The blue is
because when the pixel is "off" it's only tuned to block out green light
(the brightest wavelength), so some blue (and a bit of red) manage to get
through.
