    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make possible always displaying without being affected with environment by operating as a reflection type in bright environment, saving power consumption and operating as a transmission type assembled with a back side light source in dark environment. SOLUTION: In a reflection type-cum-transmission type display device, a guest host liquid crystal 3 is held in a gap between a pair of transparent substrates 1, 2 as electrooptical substance, and the device modulates incident light according to a voltage applied between electrodes 6, 11 to perform a display. A light reflection layer 9 is arranged on the back transparent substrate 2 side, and the majority of the light made incident from the front is reflected by it to be transmitted partially. The backside light source 30 is arranged backward from the transparent substrate 2, and the light is made incident toward front according to need. In the bright environment, the majority of external light made incident from the outside from the front toward the back is reflected by the light reflection layer 9, and a display is performed, and in the dark environment, a part of light source light made incident from the back side light source 30 from the back toward the front is transmitted to the front without shielding by the light reflection layer 9, and the display is performed.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To stabilize the patterning of quarter-wave plate layers integrated and formed within the panel of a reflection type guest-host liquid crystal display device. SOLUTION: Thin-film transistors(TFTs) 2 and a light reflection layer 10 are first formed on one substrate 1. The quarter-wave plate layers 13 consisting of uniaxially oriented macromolecular liquid crystals are formed thereon and their surface are thated to improve affinity. The quarter-wave plate layers 13 are coated with photosensitive films 30 in tight contact with the surfaces improved in the affinity of these layers and, thereafter, the films are patterned into prescribed shapes by subjecting the films to exposing and developing. The quarter-wave plate layers 13 are etched by using the patterned photosensitive films 30 as a mask to open contact holes 24 communicating with the drain electrodes 9 of the TFTs and to remove the unnecessary photosensitive films 30. Pixel electrodes 15 are formed on the quarter-wave plate layers 13 and are connected to the drain electrodes 9 of the corresponding TFTs 2 via the contact holes 14.
