  • Publication number: 20080111959
    Abstract: The structure of a trans-reflective liquid crystal display panel includes stacks in longitudinally and two areas in transversely, which are reflective area and transmissive area. A thin-film-transistor layer and a dielectric layer are formed on a substrate in sequential. For the transmissive area, a transparent conductive film, such as a pixel electrode, is formed. For the reflective area, a reflective film with multi-layer is formed on the dielectric layer and then the thin-film-transistor layer. After assembling, the trans-reflective liquid crystal display is complete. The materials of the reflective film with multi-layer and the dielectric layer are similar to have greater adhesion. Each layer of the reflective film with multi-layer includes two sublayers, the first reflective sublayer and the second reflective sublayer, which have the different refractive indexes. By modifying the temperature, pressure, gas flow and power of emitting in manufacturing process can make the refractive indexes of both layers.
