Patent ID: 7570325

Claim:
A transflective liquid crystal display comprising: first and second substrates arranged to be opposite each other and respectively divided into reflective and transmissive regions; an opposite direction reflector disposed in the reflective region on an inner surface of the first substrate for reflecting introduced light to the transmissive regions adjacent to both sides of the reflector; a color filter formed on the whole inner surface of the first substrate including the opposite direction reflector; transparent electrodes formed on a portion of the color filter in the transmissive regions; a lower polarization plate attached on an outer surface of the first substrate; common electrodes formed in the transmissive regions on the inner surface of the second substrate; an upper polarization plate attached on the outer surface of the second substrate; and a liquid crystal layer interposed between the first and second substrates, wherein the reflective region and the transmissive region have a single cell gap, and the liquid crystal layer corresponding to the reflective region includes a fixing retardation area in which introduced light is subjected to a phase difference and wherein the fixing retardation area is an area of the first and second substrates in which electrodes for operating the liquid crystals are not formed.
