Patent ID: 7599027

Claim:
A transflective liquid crystal display device comprising: a liquid crystal display panel having a first substrate, a second substrate, and a liquid crystal interposed between the first substrate and the second substrate in which the liquid crystal display panel includes a plurality of subpixels having a transmissive portion and a reflective portion, wherein the transmissive portion of each of the plurality of subpixels includes a first common electrode formed on the first substrate, and a transmissive pixel electrode formed on the first common electrode through an interlayer insulating film, wherein the transmissive pixel electrode has a plurality of pectinate electrodes or slits, and wherein the reflective portion of each of the plurality of subpixels includes a reflective electrode formed on the first common electrode, a planar reflective pixel electrode formed on the first common electrode through the interlayer insulating film, second common electrodes formed on the second substrate, and a retarder formed between the second common electrodes and the second substrate.
