Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display device comprising: a pair of substrates composed of a first substrate and a second substrate, which are disposed opposite to each other with a liquid crystal layer interposed therebetween; a pixel including a plurality of sub-pixels; reflectors provided in between the second substrate and the liquid crystal layer and that reflect incident light from the first substrate side, the reflectors arranged in a row direction and in a column direction, each reflector having two opposite terminal ends that are parallel to the row direction and that are perpendicular to the column direction, each opposite terminal end of each reflector being out of alignment in the row direction with the opposite terminal ends of adjacent reflectors; a color filter including red, green, and blue colored layers in a completely non-overlapping condition with the reflectors in plan view; and a reflective region and a transmissive region provided in each of the sub-pixels, the reflective region of each sub-pixel being in a non-overlapping condition with the color filter for black and white gray-scale display or monochrome gray-scale display, the transmissive region of each sub-pixel being in an overlapping condition with the color filter for color display in the pixel.
