Abstract:
A reflection type liquid crystal display apparatus, comprising:a plurality of scanning lines and a plurality of signal lines that are intersected with each other and that are disposed on a flat base member; a switching device connected to the scanning lines and the signal lines and controlled by scanning voltages of an image signal voltage applied from the scanning lines; a switching device array substrate having a pixel electrode connected to the switching device and to which the image signal voltage is applied and that is adapted for reflecting incident light; an opposite substrate having an opposite electrode disposed opposite to said switching device array substrate with a space on a base member; and a liquid crystal layer disposed in the space between said switching device array substrate and said opposite substrate, the periphery of said switching device array substrate and said opposite substrate being sealed, wherein said pixel electrode includes a first pixel electrode layer which has a reflecting main surface inclined to said opposite substrate and a second pixel electrode layer disposed on the main surface of the first pixel electrode layer, and the second pixel electrode layer being made of transparent material and has a main surface which is opposite to an opposite surface and is in parallel with said opposite substrate.
