Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display device comprising: a liquid crystal layer interposed between a pair of substrates and formed of liquid crystal with a negative dielectric anisotropy; a dot region; a transmissive display region for transmissive display and a reflective display region for reflective display are provided the dot region; a thickness-adjusting layer of the liquid crystal layer which makes a thickness of the liquid crystal layer in the reflective display region thinner than a thickness of the liquid crystal layer in transmissive display region, the thickness-adjusting layer of the liquid crystal layer provided at least one of the pair of substrates and having an inclined plane; and an electrode provided on the substrate opposite to the side where the thickness-adjusting layer of the liquid crystal layer is provided; and a protrusion being provided at a position corresponding to the inclined plane on the electrode; the inclined plane is provided in the vicinity of the boundary between the reflective display region and the transmissive display region, the protrusion controlling an alignment direction or the liquid crystal.
