Abstract:
A liquid crystal display device, comprising:a first substrate;a second substrate;a liquid crystal layer interposed between the first substrate and the second substrate;a display region including a plurality of pixel regions each defined by a pair of electrodes for applying a voltage across the liquid crystal layer; anda non-display region surrounding the display region, wherein:the first substrate includes a reflection electrode region provided in the display region for each of the pixel electrodes;the reflection electrode region includes a first insulating layer having a surface which exhibits a concave/convex profile and a reflection layer formed on the first insulating layer;the first substrate includes a second insulating layer in the non-display region; andH.sub.min -0.5.ltoreq.h.sub.mode.ltoreq.H.sub.max +0.5 (unit: .mu.m)where: h.sub.mode denotes a mode among heights of the insulating layer surface in the non-display region with respect to a reference surface; and H.sub.max and H.sub.min respectively denote maximum and minimum heights of a surface of the reflection layer in the display region which exhibits the concave/convex profile with respect to the reference surface.
