Patent ID: 7777844

Claim:
A liquid crystal display device being arranged as a transflective system comprising: a first substrate; a second substrate; a liquid crystal layer laid between the first and the second substrates; a first polarization plate located on the opposite side of the first substrate to the side on which the liquid crystal layer is located; a second polarization plate located on the opposite side of the second substrate to the side on which the liquid crystal layer is located; a plurality of pixels formed between the first and the second substrates, each of the pixels having a reflective area and a transmissive area; an in-cell retarder located between the second substrate and the liquid crystal layer, the plurality of pixels including different color pixels, and the in-cell retarder located for the different color pixels has a predetermined phase difference relationship for the different color pixels; and an optical compensation film located between the first substrate and the first polarization plate or between the second substrate and the second polarization plate or both.
