Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display device comprising: a pixel electrode substrate having a reflection pixel electrode part and a transmission pixel electrode part with respect to each pixel; a counter electrode substrate having a counter electrode part and disposed with the counter electrode part opposing the reflection pixel electrode part and the transmission pixel electrode part of the pixel electrode substrate; and a liquid crystal layer interposed between the pixel electrode substrate and the counter electrode substrate, wherein each pixel has a reflection region corresponding to the reflection pixel electrode part and a transmission region corresponding to the transmission pixel electrode part, a surface of the counter electrode substrate facing the liquid crystal layer has been rubbed in a given rubbing direction, the counter electrode substrate has a convex for making a thickness of the liquid crystal layer smaller in the reflection region than in the transmission region, and an end of the convex on a downstream side along the rubbing direction is disposed in a position shifted toward an upstream side along the rubbing direction relatively to the reflection pixel electrode part.
