Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal apparatus comprising: a pair of substrates including a liquid crystal layer disposed therebetween, and a two-dimensional array of pixel regions each including a transmissive display region and a reflective display region, the transmissive display regions of different pixel regions having areas different from one another, wherein one of the substrates has a plurality of color filter layers provided in correspondence with the pixel regions, a reflective film provided over the color filter layers, and an overcoat film covering the reflective film, and wherein, among the pixel regions including the transmissive display regions having different areas, a pixel region including a transmissive display region with a large area has a color filter layer with a thickness larger than that of a color filter layer provided in a pixel region including a transmissive display region with a small area, and wherein when the area of the transmissive display region having a large area is 1.25 or more times larger than the area of the transmissive display region having a small area, the thickness of the color filter layer provided in the pixel region including the transmissive display region having a large area is 1.05 or more times the thickness of the color filter layer provided in the pixel region including the transmissive display region having a small area.
