Patent ID: 8237895

Claim:
A liquid crystal display device comprising: a liquid crystal layer interposed between a first substrate and a second substrate opposed to each other; a thin film transistor circuit as a switching element; a reflection display portion and a transmission display portion; a light-transparent pixel electrode and a light-transparent common electrode which are laminated above the first substrate via an insulating film, with the pixel electrode placed as an upper layer and the common electrode placed as a lower layer; a color filter formed on the second substrate; a non-light-transparent reflective plate formed under the common electrode in a reflection display region of the first substrate; an organic polymer layer formed on the reflective plate and having an oxidized surface; a layer having one of a siloxane structure and a silazane structure on a surface of the organic polymer layer; a polarizing layer made of chromonic liquid crystalline molecules between the common electrode and the reflective plate; and an organic insulating film covering the polarizing layer.
