Abstract: A liquid crystal panel including a driving substrate and a counter substrate, the two substrates having a liquid crystal layer interposed therebetween. The driving substrate has pixel electrodes and transistors connected to the pixel electrodes on a surface thereof, which are covered with an alignment film. The counter substrate is provided adjacent to the alignment film of the driving substrate. The alignment film is rubbed in a direction substantially parallel to signal lines or scanning lines connected to the transistors. Each of the pixels has a projection at a substantially central position in a direction perpendicular to the rubbing direction.

Abstract: A liquid crystal display is disclosed. The liquid crystal display has a driving substrate on which transparent pixel electrodes are formed; a counter substrate on which a counter electrode is formed; and a liquid crystal material disposed between the driving substrate and the counter substrate, molecules of the liquid crystal material being oriented orthogonally to the substrates. The driving substrate has pixel capacitors and pixel transistors formed thereon, the pixel capacitors being disposed under the pixel electrodes, the pixel transistors acting to write signal voltages to the pixel electrodes and to the pixel capacitors. The pixel electrodes have slits formed over the pixel capacitors to orient the molecules of the liquid crystal material orthogonally and in a split manner. Each of the pixel capacitors has an electrode for reflecting light and forms a reflective region.

In a second substrate 80, a region facing a region where a light reflection portion is formed includes a first region where a color filter layer is formed at a predetermined layer thickness and a second region where the color filer layer is not formed, and, in a first substrate, a layer thickness difference adjustment layer for adjusting a difference of a layer thickness of the liquid crystal layer generated by a height of step between the first region and the second region due to the color filter layer is formed in the region where the light reflection portion is formed so as to face the second region.

Abstract: In a normally black mode liquid crystal display, the liquid crystal display and the method prevents the light leakage arising from existing the step for adjusting the thickness of the liquid crystal layer between the reflective electrode and the transparent electrode and that high contrast displaying can be possible. The interval adjustment layer is formed between the first substrate that the reflective electrode is formed in the reflective region and the transparent electrode is formed in the transmissive region, and the second substrate that is fixed at predetermined interval from the first substrate. This interval adjustment layer is adjuster of the thickness of the liquid crystal layer in the reflective region on the second substrate, and the thickness of the liquid crystal layer in the reflective region is preferable to be set approximately the thickness of the liquid crystal layer of the transmissive region.
