Patent ID: 7342626

Claim:
A display device being characterized in that: on one of respective substrates which are arranged to face each other with liquid crystal therebetween, a plurality of juxtaposed gate signal lines and a plurality of juxtaposed drain signal lines which cross the respective gate signal lines are formed, regions surrounded by these respective signal lines constitute pixel regions, and each pixel region includes a switching element which is operated in response to a scanning signal from the signal line and a pixel electrode to which a video signal is supplied from the drain signal line through the switching element, the pixel electrode is constituted of a first pixel electrode formed of a light transmissive conductive layer which is formed in a light transmissive region which constitutes one region after partitioning the pixel region and a second pixel electrode formed of a non-light transmissive conductive film which is formed in a light reflective region which constitutes the other region after partitioning the pixel region, the first pixel electrode is positioned as a lower layer with respect to an insulation film, a hole is formed in the insulation film in a region corresponding to the light transmissive region so as to expose the first pixel electrode, the second pixel electrode is formed in the light reflective region of the insulation film, and a light shielding film which is positioned as a layer below the insulation film is provided to at least a portion corresponding to a side wall surface of the hole formed in the insulation film.
