Abstract
A liquid crystal display device includes a transmissive region and a reflective region. The liquid crystal display device includes a liquid crystal element, a transistor, a scan line, a signal line, and an insulating layer. A semiconductor layer of the transistor includes a channel region and a low-resistance region. A channel region overlaps with a gate with a gate insulating layer provided therebetween. The low-resistance region includes a first portion in contact with a pixel electrode of the liquid crystal element and a second portion in contact with a side surface of an opening portion in the insulating layer. The first portion of the low-resistance region is positioned in the transmissive region or the reflective region. The reflective region includes a layer that reflects visible light. The layer that reflects visible light includes a portion positioned between the scan line or the signal line and a liquid crystal layer.
