摘要:
In a thin film transistor array substrate, when a light shield pattern is formed in the space between a wiring group and a transparent electrode film, a trench which makes it possible to reduce bright spot defects is formed in an insulating film without revealing a light shielding film, by intentionally leaving a part of an a-Si film which is a semiconductor film constituting a thin film transistor. Accordingly, it is possible to manufacture a thin film transistor array substrate with less bright spot defects without increasing the number of manufacturing processes.

A lighting apparatus for illuminating a liquid crystal display (LCD) panel from behind is disclosed, wherein the LCD panel, when illuminated uniformly, exhibits asymmetric contrast ratios as viewed in a vertical direction. The apparatus comprises a light guide panel having a multitude of light reflecting dots on a reflecting surface opposite to the LCD panel, and a light source for injecting light into the light guide panel in a horizontal direction through a first edge of the light guide panel, so that the light propagates through the light guide panel toward the opposite edge of the panel and irregularly reflects off the dots toward the liquid crystal display panel. The light reflecting dots in a lower portion of the reflecting surface have a lower density than those in an upper portion of the reflecting surface, and each of these portions of the reflecting surface has a density increasing as a function of distance from the first edge of the light guide panel so that the LCD panel has equal brightness at the upper and lower portions when viewed at an angle substantially equal to 90.degree. and an angle smaller than 90.degree., respectively.

A liquid crystal display substrate includes a first substrate, a second substrate, terminals, and a conductive region. The first substrate has a large number of pixel electrodes arranged in a matrix. The second substrate is arranged to be opposite to the first substrate and to interpose a liquid crystal with the first substrate and has a counter electrode for performing liquid crystal display by a voltage applied across said pixel electrodes and the counter electrode. The terminals include common electrode terminals arranged at one part of a peripheral portion of the first substrate. The conductive region is formed at a part of the peripheral portion in which the terminals of the first substrate are not formed, and the conductive region is connected to at least one of the common electrode terminals to apply a common potential to the counter electrode. A liquid crystal display device using the above liquid crystal display substrate is also disclosed.

A liquid-crystal display suitable for the optically compensated birefringence (OCB) display mode is used so as to simplify the voltage setting relating to display of each color by setting as follows. A liquid-crystal layer is oriented to bend alignment between a pair of substrates. A phase compensation plate is set for compensating a phase of the liquid-crystal layer outside of each of the substrates. And a retardation between the liquid-crystal and the phase compensation plates is set to a value ½ or less of the minimum wavelength of the light relating to display.

A reflection plate is formed so as to have a wavy surface, and to have uneven distribution of normal line directions of the surface in terms of a specific azimuth angle. The wavy surface is formed due to line-shaped protruding patterns and an insulation film layer. The protruding patterns intersect with one another to form concave portions each having a shape of a closed figure. The protruding patterns are formed by patterning such that they have almost uniform thickness.

摘要:
In a manufacturing method of a color liquid crystal display device, a first conductive film is formed on a transparent insulating substrate to form a gate electrode and a gate bus line (first PR process). A gate insulating film, a semiconductor layer, an ohmic layer, and a second conductive film are deposited to form an island of a thin film transistor and a drain bus line (second PR process). Then, color filters in respective three colors are formed in their respective predetermined regions on the transparent insulating substrate in succession (third through fifth PR processes). A black matrix is formed, and a drain electrode and a source electrode are formed in the island by removing the second conductive film and ohmic layer on a region corresponding to the channel region by using the black matrix as a mask (sixth PR process). Then, a planarization film and a pixel electrode are formed (seventh and eighth PR processes).
