Patent ID: 7787078

Claim:
An active-matrix-drive liquid crystal display (LCD) device comprising a front substrate including a front polarizing film disposed on a front side of said front substrate, a rear substrate including a rear polarizing film disposed on a rear side of said rear substrate, a liquid crystal (LC) layer sandwiched between said front substrate and said rear substrate, and a reflecting film disposed on a rear side of said rear polarizing film, wherein a distance between said LC layer and said reflecting film is not larger than 0.8 mm, and a thickness of said LC layer is less than a thickness of both the rear substrate and a thickness of the rear polarizing film, wherein said LCD device defines thereon a plurality of pixels arranged at a pitch of not larger than 0.33 mm, and said rear substrate has a smaller thickness than said front substrate, and wherein one of said rear substrate and said front substrate mounts thereon, on a surface near said LC layer, color filter layers.
