Abstract: A method for manufacturing a transflective type LCD having a first substrate provided thereon with a plurality of scanning lines and a plurality of signal lines which are substantially perpendicular to each other and a switching element arranged near each of intersections between said scanning lines and said signal lines, includes forming a reflection region having a reflection electrode film and a transmission region having a transparent electrode film in each pixel surrounded by said scanning lines and said signal lines, a liquid crystal being sandwiched at a gap between said first substrate and a second substrate which is arranged opposite to said first substrate, and forming an organic film having irregularities thereon below said reflection electrode film and said transparent electrode film to substantially the same film thickness.

Abstract: In a transflective type LCD provided with a transparent region and a reflection region in each pixel, when an irregular film 11 is formed on an active matrix substrate 12 to form irregularities of a reflection electrode film 6, the irregular film 11 is specifically formed to almost the same film thickness in both the transparent region and the reflection region to provide substantially the same inter-substrate gap in these two regions so that they may have almost the same V-T characteristics and also the reflection electrode film 6 made of Al/Mo is formed so as to overlap with a transmission electrode film 5 made of ITO all around an outer periphery of the transmission electrode film 5 by a width of at least 2 ?m, thus suppressing electric erosion from occurring between the ITO and Al substances at the edge of the transmission electrode film 5.

Abstract: By fitting a planar microlens array provided with one or more marks with a liquid crystal panel provided with one or more corresponding marks, it is possible to align the position of both exactly. The marks according to the present invention may comprise rod shapes, cross shapes, ring shapes, or square shapes, among others.

Abstract: A planar microlens array includes an array of convex microlenses made of an ultraviolet-curable synthetic resin having a high refractive index and disposed on a surface of a base glass plate. A cover glass plate is bonded to the array of convex microlenses by an adhesive layer made of an ultraviolet-curable synthetic resin having a low refractive index. A film made of an ultraviolet-curable synthetic resin is applied to a surface of the base glass plate remote from the array of convex microlenses. The film serves to prevent the planar microlens array from being warped when the ultraviolet-curable synthetic resin of the array of convex microlenses and the adhesive layer are cured.

Abstract: For providing a stamper for forming a planar micro-lens array, a stamper is prepared by forming plural concave portions 2 for forming lens portion upon a stamping surface thereof, and a trap portion 3 is provided surrounding said plural concave portions and continuing until an outer edge thereof. Then, onto the stamping surface, on which a release agent 4 is applied, there is applied a high refractive index resin 5, and a glass substrate 6 is pressed onto the high refractive index resin 5 to exude it. With this operation, the high refractive index resin 5 is filled into each of the plural concave portions 2, and any excess is received or accommodated in the trap portion 3, thereby preventing excess resin from being forced outside.
