Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display device comprising: a pair of opposing substrates; a liquid crystal layer provided between the pair of opposing substrates; and a plurality of pixels provided in one of the pair of substrates, each one of the plurality of pixels having a reflective display area and a transmissive display area therein, the reflective display area achieving display by reflection of light, and the transmissive display area achieving display by transmission of light, wherein a laminated body including a reflective plate, an insulating layer, and an opaque metal electrode for rotating liquid crystal molecules of the liquid crystal layer within a surface thereof is provided within the reflective display area, the opaque metal electrode within the reflective display area is a common electrode or a pixel electrode, the reflective display area has the reflective plate provided between a substrate on which the reflective plate is formed and the metal electrode, opaque metal electrodes for rotating the liquid crystal molecules of the liquid crystal layer within a surface thereof are provided within the transmissive display area, the opaque metal electrodes within the transmissive display area include a common electrode and a pixel electrode, and the pixel electrode and the common electrode in the transmissive display area are respectively formed in a comb-like shape, and the electrodes are disposed alternately in a same layer.
