Patent ID: 7929082

Claim:
A transmissive and reflective type LCD comprising: an array substrate; a counter substrate having an inner surface facing the array substrate; a liquid crystal layer formed between the array substrate and the counter substrate; a first polarizing plate formed on an outer surface of the array substrate; a second polarizing plate formed on an outer surface of the counter substrate; a backlight for irradiating incident light onto the first polarizing plate; and a transflective film arranged between the first polarizing plate and the backlight, the transflective film reflecting a first polarization component of the incident light in a first direction, and partially reflecting and transmitting a second polarization component of the incident light in a second direction, wherein the transflective film is deposited or coated on a surface of the first polarizing plate, so that the transflective film is integrally formed with the first polarizing plate, wherein the transflective film includes at least a first layer and a second layer, and each of the first layer and the second layer has three main refractive indexes of n x , n y and n z that satisfy the following relationships: n1 x =n1 z ≠n1 y ; n2 x =n2 y =n2 z ; n1 x ≠n2 x ; n1 y ≠n2 y ; and |n1 x −n2 x |<|n1 y −n2 y | wherein the transflective film has a thickness direction of z-axis and a film plane of x-y plane, wherein n1x, n1y, n1z denotes a main refractive index of the first layer in an x-axis, y-axis, z-axis, respectively, and n2x, n2y, n2z denotes a main refractive index of the second layer in an x-axis, y-axis, z-axis, respectively.
