Abstract:
A reflection type liquid crystal display comprising:(a) a first substrate; (b) a second substrate having a transparent electrode formed thereon in facing relation to said first substrate; and (c) a liquid crystal layer sandwiched between said first and second substrates, said first substrate including: (a1) an insulating substrate; (a2) a switching device fabricated on said insulating substrate; (a3) at least one projection projecting towards said second substrate and formed on said insulating substrate in a line with said switching device; (a4) a first insulating film formed on top of both said switching device and said projection and patterned to conform to said switching device and said projection, wherein said first insulating comprises a continuous layer covering said switching device and a continuous layer covering said projection; (a5) a second insulating film covering said first insulating film on both said switching device and said projection therewith and having first raised and recessed portions formed in accordance with height of said switching device and said projection; and (a6) a light-reflective plate formed over said second insulating film and having second raised and recessed portions formed over said first raised and recessed portions, said switching device being in electrical connection with said light-reflective plate.
