Patent ID: 8665403

Claim:
A liquid crystal display device comprising: a liquid crystal layer between a first substrate and a second substrate; a structural body between the first substrate and the liquid crystal layer; a reflective electrode layer between the structural body and the liquid crystal layer; a planarizing film between the reflective electrode layer and the liquid crystal layer; a pixel electrode between the planarizing film and the liquid crystal layer; a light-transmitting electrode layer between the second substrate and the liquid crystal layer; and a polarizing plate on a side of the second substrate opposite to a liquid crystal layer side, wherein the reflective electrode layer has a surface having a depression and a projection, wherein a peak wavelength range in which transmittance of the light-transmitting electrode layer is increased is included in a wavelength range in which transmittance in a visible light range of the polarizing plate is decreased, and wherein the pixel electrode and the light-transmitting electrode layer are formed using similar material with each other.
