Abstract: A liquid crystal display element accommodates a reflective portion provided with a concavo-convex reflecting pixel electrode for reflecting incident light from the display face side and displaying information, and a transmissive portion provided with a transmissive pixel electrode for transmitting light that is output from the backlight. The voltages applied to the reflective portion and the transmissive portion are controlled independently. The reflective portion and the transmissive portion have wide viewing angle characteristics. In a wide viewing angle region greater than a certain angle, the luminance of the reflective portion is greater than the luminance of the transmissive portion, whereas in other angle regions the luminance of the transmissive portion is greater than the luminance of the reflective portion. In a wide viewing field mode, the reflective portion and transmissive portion both perform normal display, whereas in the narrow viewing field mode, the transmissive portion performs normal display, while the reflective portion performs cancelling data display, thereby rendering unviewable the display content of the transmissive portion from beyond a certain viewing angle. It is thus possible to provide a semi-transmissive liquid crystal display device and a portable terminal device switchable between a narrow viewing field mode and a wide viewing field mode.

Abstract: A liquid-crystal display device makes it possible to attach an optical element to a liquid-crystal display panel with high positional accuracy while avoiding or minimizing the enlargement of the picture-frame region (i.e., the non-display region) induced by the formation of markers on the panel and the increase of the fabrication cost. The panel comprises a main substrate, an opposite substrate, and a liquid crystal enclosed in a gap between the main and opposite substrates, wherein a polarizer plate is attached at least to the opposite substrate. Markers for attaching an optical element to the panel are formed at positions that overlap with the polarizer plate in a non-display region on the main or opposite substrate. Alignment direction regulators regulate the alignment of the liquid crystal molecules to a predetermined direction in the vicinities of the markers, allowing light to pass through at least the opposite substrate.

Abstract: In a formation method for forming a fine structure in a workpiece (30) containing an etching control component, using an isotropic etching process, a mask (32, 34) having an opening (36) is applied to the workpiece, and the workpiece is etched with an etching solution (38) to thereby form a recess (40), corresponding to a shape of the opening, in a surface of the workpiece.

Abstract: An LCD device in an LCD projector includes a TFT substrate, a counter substrate, an LC layer sandwiched between the TFT substrate and the counter substrate, and a pair of compensation substrates attached onto the outer surfaces of the TFT substrate and the counter substrate far from the LC layer. The compensation substrate has a negative coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) for compensating the retardation caused by a temperature rise of the TFT substrate and the counter substrate due to irradiation thereof by a light source.
