Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display comprising: first and second substrates; a liquid crystal layer interposed between the first and second substrates, the liquid crystal display having a plurality of reflective areas and a plurality of transmissive areas, each reflective area having a reflective electrode on the second substrate and each transmissive area having a transparent electrode on the second substrate; a plurality of retardation films provided on an alignment film of the first substrate, at least two of the retardation films being provided on the first substrate opposite the reflective electrode of the corresponding reflective area and separated from the reflective electrode by the liquid crystal layer, at least two other of the retardation films being provided on the first substrate opposite the transparent electrode of the corresponding transmissive area and separated from the transparent electrode by the liquid crystal layer; the plurality of retardation films being separated by another alignment film; at least one interlayer positioned in the reflective area between the reflective electrode and the second substrate; and the liquid crystal layer has a phase difference of λ/4 in the reflective area and a phase difference of λ/2 in the transmissive area when no voltage is applied or when a voltage is applied, wherein,
