Abstract:
1. A method of manufacturing a reflective liquid crystal display device, comprising: providing a first substrate including a display region and a first non-display region, the first non-display region being disposed at a boundary of the display region; forming a light shielding pattern of a transparent conductive material at the first non-display region adjacent to the display region, wherein the light shielding pattern is simultaneously formed with a pixel electrode using the same material as the pixel electrode, wherein the pattern completely surrounds the display region; forming a light absorption layer on an inner surface of the first substrate; forming a cholesteric liquid crystal color filter (CCF) layer at the display region and the first non-display region on the light absorption layer; applying a same signal to the light shielding pattern at the first non-display region adjacent to the display region and a common electrode over a second substrate; and forming a liquid crystal layer between the light shielding pattern and the common electrode, wherein the liquid crystal layer is a π-cell having a retardation of λ/2, wherein the pattern corresponds to the cholesteric liquid crystal color filter layer at the first non-display region.
