Liquid crystal display device with a partial reflector and a polarizer on the partial reflector and an electronic apparatus

Abstract

A liquid crystal display device of the present invention includes a liquid crystal panel including a liquid crystal layer 4-sandwiched between opposed upper and lower substrates, and upper and lower polarizing layers provided at the top and bottom of the liquid crystal layer-4, a reflective layer formed on the inner surface of the lower substrate and having through holes for transmitting light, a lower polarizing plate provided on the reflective layer, the lower polarizing layer having apertures which are continued from the through holes of the reflective layer and which are formed at substantially the same planar portions as the through holes. Therefore, the present invention provides a transflective liquid crystal display device capable of a light display even in a transmissive mode, and a manufacturing method therefor.
