1. A semi-transmissive liquid crystal display device comprising:

  • a plurality of pixels arranged in a matrix;

    a plurality of reflective electrodes provided for each of the pixels, each of the reflective electrodes including a plurality of electrodes, with a combination of the areas of which area coverage modulation is performed by using n bits, where n is an integer equal to or more than 2, the electrodes being configured such that a ratio of the sum of the perimeter(s) of one(s) corresponding to each bit of the n bits satisfies 1;

    2;

    . . . ;

    2n-1,a counter electrode facing the reflective electrode; and

    a liquid crystal layer provided between the reflective electrode and the counter electrode, whereinthe semi-transmissive liquid crystal display device is configured tocarry out reflective display using the reflective electrode andcarry out transmissive display using at least a space of the reflective electrodes between the pixels.
