REFLECTIVE LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY DEVICE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To develop an external light and lighting type reflective liquid crystal display device which is thin and lightweight, hardly causes panel cracking, and has superior display quality. SOLUTION: The reflective liquid crystal display panel (100) is equipped with a light reflecting means (12) on the back side of the liquid crystal layer of a liquid crystal cell (90) formed by sandwiching liquid crystal (30) between a back-side cell substrate (10) having at least an electrode (12) on a base substrate (11) and a view-side cell substrate (20) which has at least a transparent electrode (21) provided on a transparent substrate (24) thicker than the base substrate of the cell substrate while both the substrates are arranged having their electrode sides put opposite each other. The liquid crystal display panel has a lighting device (50) at one or more places on its side face and is provided with an optical path control layer (40) having a light projecting means (A) equipped with an optical path conversion oblique surface (A1) on the external surface side of the view-side cell substrate.
