Patent ID: 8531574

Claim:
A display device comprising: a transparent first substrate; a transparent second substrate; a liquid crystal layer which is formed of a polymer dispersed liquid crystal held between the first substrate and the second substrate; a transparent first segment electrode which is formed on the first substrate so that a predetermined area becomes a positive pattern with respect to a predetermined display information; a transparent second segment electrode which is formed on the first substrate so that a predetermined area becomes a negative pattern with respect to the predetermined display information, wherein the transparent second segment electrode is formed as a same first layer as the first segment electrode; a transparent common electrode which is formed on the second substrate to face the first and second segment electrodes; a transparent auxiliary electrode which is formed as a second layer different from the first layer on the first substrate along a gap between the first and second segment electrodes; and a transparent insulating film interposed between the first and second layers, wherein the auxiliary electrode is connected to the second segment electrode via a contact hole formed in the insulating film.
