Abstract: A liquid crystal display device comprises a pair of opposed substrates, a transparent electrode on at least one of the substrates, a liquid crystal composition, a characteristic orienting film comprising an organic high copolymer resin film formed at least over the surface of the electrode, and which shows an excellent orientation, and conductive particles mixed within the orienting film to reduce the resistance of the orienting film.

Abstract: A liquid crystal display cell of the reflection type comprises a substrate on which reflection electrodes are formed, a transparent substrate on which transparent electrodes are formed and a liquid crystal composition filled between said two substrates. Activating voltage signals are applied between said two electrodes, thereby to drive the liquid crystal display cell to display desired symbols. A reflection film is formed on at least one of said two substrates in such a manner that the reflection film is electrically isolated from said reflection electrodes and the reflection film covers a position where the symbols are never displayed, or the reflection electrodes are not formed. The visibility of the information displayed on the liquid crystal cell can be enhanced because the reflection electrodes and the reflection film, in combination, cover the display panel uniformly.
