Patent ID: 8289482

Claim:
A transflective liquid crystal display (LCD) comprising a plurality of pixels, each pixel comprising: (a) a first structure comprising: (i) a first substrate having a first surface and an opposite, second surface; (ii) a first quarter-wave film formed on the first surface of the first substrate; (iii) a first polarization film formed on the first quarter-wave film; (iv) an organic layer having a bump area and a flat area extending from the bump area, formed on the second surface of the first substrate; and (v) a metal layer formed on the bump area of the organic layer so as to define a reflective area therewith and a transmissive area adjacent to the reflective area; (b) a second structure comprising: (i) a second substrate having a first surface and an opposite, second surface; (ii) a second quarter-wave film formed on the second surface of the second substrate; (iii) a second polarization film formed on the second quarter-wave film; (iv) a color filter formed on the first surface of the second substrate; and (v) a plurality of electrodes formed on the color filter such that at least two electrodes are positioned in the transmissive area and define a first distance therebetween, and at least two electrodes are positioned in the reflective area and define a second distance therebetween, wherein the second distance is larger than the first distance, wherein the first structure and the second structure are positioned relative to each other to define a cell gap therebetween; and (c) a liquid crystal layer positioned in the cell gap between the first structure and the second structure.
