Patent ID: 8243236

Claim:
A method for manufacturing a liquid crystal display device having a reflection region for reflecting incident light toward a display surface, comprising: a step of forming a metal layer on a substrate; a step of forming an insulating layer on the metal layer; a step of forming a semiconductor layer on the insulating layer; and a step of forming a reflective layer on the semiconductor layer, wherein a plurality of recesses are formed in at least one of the metal layer, the insulating layer and the semiconductor layer; in the step of forming a reflective layer, a plurality of dents are formed in the reflective layer in the reflection region according to the plurality of recesses; a shortest distance between edge portions of at least two of the plurality of recesses is 4 μm or less; wherein: in the step of forming a metal layer, photolithography technique is used to form the plurality of recesses in the metal layer and form at least one of a gate bus line and a storage capacitor line; and a thickness of a resist film used for forming the plurality of recesses is smaller than that of a resist film used for forming at least one of the gate bus line and the storage capacitor line.
