Abstract:
A liquid-crystal display device comprising:a reflective layer disposed for each of pixel regions where pixel electrodes are arranged on one substrate among a pair of substrates sandwiching liquid crystals; anda plurality of light-transmissive thin films on the surface of each reflective layer, each of the thin films having a predetermined thickness and a predetermined refractive index, wherein each of said reflective layers is a conductor, and said light-transmissive thin films are anodic oxide films formed into predetermined thicknesses by anodically oxidizing the surface of each of said reflective layers; andwherein light reflected by said reflective layers is colored into mutually-different interference colors which are substantially determined in accordance with the thicknesses and the refractive indexes of several types of said light-transmissive thin films.
