LIQUID CRYSTAL DEVICE AND ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reconcile appropriate setting of layer thickness of a liquid crystal layer between a reflection display area and a transmission display area by an insulating layer and assurance of fluidity of an alignment layer material between the plurality of transmission display areas even when the insulating layer is provided in a semi-transparent reflection type liquid crystal display device.

SOLUTION: The liquid crystal display device has a pair of electrodes opposite to each other, the liquid crystal layer sandwiched by the electrodes and the insulation layer 48 for adjusting the layer thickness of the liquid crystal layer. The pair of electrodes are overlapped with each other in a plurality of subpixel areas D arranged at intervals with each other in planar view. Each of the subpixel areas D has the reflection display area R for reflecting light and the transmission display area T for transmitting the light. The insulation layer 48 is formed with thick first film thickness in the reflection display area R and formed with thin second film thickness in the transmission display area T. A part S of the insulation layer 48 existing between the mutually adjacent transmission display areas T is formed with third film thickness thinner than the first film thickness.
