  • Patent number: 7692742
    Abstract: A transflective liquid crystal display is provided. The electric fields of reflective regions are adjusted by arranging resistors between transmissive electrodes and reflectors or by disposing reflectors floating on the transmissive electrodes and ground electrodes so that the phase shift of liquid crystal layer in the reflective region and transmissive region can be controlled. Accordingly, the transmissive area and reflective area can be kept substantially identical in thickness and the complex process for manufacturing double gap structure is thus not required.
