Abstract:
A transflective liquid crystal display device comprising:first and second substrates opposing each other; liquid crystal material interposed between the first and second substrates; first and second electrodes, arranged in correspondence to the first and second substrates, respectively, to apply an electric field to the liquid crystal material; a plurality of reflective pixel electrodes being positioned between the liquid crystal material and the second substrate, the reflective pixel electrodes comprising a plurality of reflective subpixels, each of which emits a light of a different color; a plurality of transparent pixel electrodes being positioned between the liquid crystal material and the second substrate, the transparent pixel electrodes comprising a plurality of transparent subpixels, each of which emits a light of a different color, wherein each of the reflective and transparent subpixels includes only one of the group consisting of a reflective pixel electrode and a transparent pixel electrode; a color filter layer positioned between the first substrate and the liquid crystal material, the color filter layer having first portions aligned with the reflective pixel electrodes and second portions aligned with the transparent pixel electrodes; and a backlight device under the second substrate.
