Patent ID: 8405805

Claim:
A liquid crystal display device of a transflective type, which is configured such that a liquid crystal layer is held between a first substrate and a second substrate and each of pixels is provided with a transmissive part and a reflective part, the first substrate comprising: a switch element which is disposed in each of the pixels; an insulation layer which is disposed at least in the reflective part; a pixel electrode which includes a transmissive electrode disposed in the transmissive part of the pixel and a reflective electrode electrically connected to the transmissive electrode and disposed on the insulation layer in the reflective part, the pixel electrode being electrically connected to the switch element via a contact hole which is formed in the insulation layer by the reflective electrode; and a cover member which covers the reflective electrode in the contact hole, exposes the reflective electrode on the insulation layer, and is formed of a material having a lower reflectance than the reflective electrode.
