<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a liquid crystal display device which realizes a bright display with a wide viewing angle in both transmissive display and reflective display. <P>SOLUTION: The liquid crystal display device is equipped with a transmissive display region T and a reflective display region R and comprises a liquid crystal with negative dielectric anisotropy, of which the initial alignment state assumes vertical alignment. In the liquid crystal display device, slit shaped opening parts 94 and protruding parts 37 to control alignment of liquid crystal molecules are formed on electrodes 9, 31 to drive the liquid crystal and furthermore an insulating film 26 to construct liquid crystal layer thickness of the transmissive display region T larger than that of the reflective display region R is formed between a substrate 10A and the liquid crystal layer 50. The insulating film 26 is provided with inclined surfaces 26a for the purpose of continuously varying its own layer thickness in the vicinity of boundaries between the transmissive display regions T and the reflective display regions R, wherein a longitudinal direction of the inclined surfaces 26a and those of the opening parts 94 and the protruding parts 37 are disposed so as to two-dimensionally mutually intersect. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI |
