Patent ID: 7250996

Claim:
A liquid crystal display comprising: a pair of substrates provided opposite to each other; a liquid crystal layer sealed between the pair of substrates; a pixel region including a reflective area having a reflector for reflecting light entering from the side of one of the pair of substrates and a transmissive area for transmitting light entering from the side of the other of the pair of substrates toward the one of the pair of substrates; and a thin film transistor formed at each pixel region, wherein the reflector is formed of the same material as that of a gate electrode or drain electrode of the thin film transistor and has a multi-layer structure constituted by a first metal layer having a high reflectivity and a second metal layer having a lower reflectivity than that of the first metal layer, the second metal layer is formed above the first metal layer, and the reflector includes a reflective surface formed of the first metal layer exposed where the second metal layer is removed.
