LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY DEVICE
First Claim
1. A liquid crystal display device, comprising:
- a liquid crystal display panel comprising;
a TFT substrate including a thin film transistor;
a counter substrate arranged opposed to the TFT substrate; and
a liquid crystal layer sandwiched between the TFT substrate and the counter substrate,the TFT substrate including a pixel electrode and a common electrode laminated one on top of another via an insulating layer,one of the pixel electrode and the common electrode provided farther from the liquid crystal layer being formed into a plane shape, and another of the pixel electrode and the common electrode provided closer to the liquid crystal layer having a plurality of slits formed therein,each of the plurality of slits having an end portion in a long-side direction, which is closed; and
illumination means serving as a light source for the liquid crystal display panel,wherein the liquid crystal display panel further comprises reflection means for reflecting light, the reflection means being formed at a surface of the liquid crystal display panel on the illumination means side in a portion which overlaps, in plan view, the end portion of the each of the plurality of slits in the long-side direction and a vicinity thereof, and a part of an inner region of the each of the plurality of slits.

Abstract
The TFT substrate includes a pixel electrode and a common electrode laminated one on top of another via an insulating layer, one of the pixel electrode and the common electrode provided farther from the liquid crystal layer being formed into a plane shape, and another of the pixel electrode and the common electrode provided closer to the liquid crystal layer having slits formed therein, each of the plurality of slits having a closed end portion. The liquid crystal display panel further includes a reflection portion for reflecting light, the reflection portion being formed at a surface of the liquid crystal display panel on the illumination device side in a portion which overlaps, in plan view, the end portion of the each of the slits in the long-side direction and a vicinity thereof, and a part of an inner region of the each of the slits.
