Abstract:
A transflective liquid crystal display device, comprising:a first polarizer; a first retardation film under the first polarizer; a first substrate under the first retardation film; a color filter under the first substrate; a reflective electrode having a light transmitting portion below the color filter; a liquid crystal layer interposed between the color filter and the reflective electrode; a second retardation film under the reflective electrode, wherein the second retardation film has a first portion that transmits light without polarization change and a second portion that transmits light with a phase difference of &lgr;/4; a CLC color filter below the liquid crystal layer; a second polarizer made of a cholesteric liquid crystal and formed below the second retardation film; and a backlight device arranged below the second polarizer for irradiating light toward the second polarizer.
