Patent ID: 7538839

Claim:
A liquid crystal display, comprising: a first substrate; a second substrate; a liquid crystal layer in between the first and second substrates; a pixel including: a transmissive section for transmissive display and including a transmissive electrode; and a first reflective section and a second reflective section for reflective display, the first and second reflective sections sandwiching therebetween the transmissive section, the first reflective section including a reflective electrode; a first color filter; a second color filter different from the first color filter; a light-shielding layer disposed between the first color filter and the second color filter; and a layer disposed between the liquid crystal layer and one of the first substrate and the second substrate and making a thickness of the liquid crystal layer thicker at the transmissive section than at the reflective section, the layer including a side wall extending from the one of the first substrate and the second substrate toward a top of the layer, the transmissive electrode covering the side wall of the layer and contacting the reflective electrode at a position between the layer and the transmissive section.
