Abstract:
A transflective liquid crystal display device includes a pixel region having reflective and transmissive portions. A first passivation layer having one or more protrusions in the reflective portion is disposed on a thin film transistor formed on a first substrate. A reflective layer disposed on the first passivation layer in the reflective portion is uneven, at least in part due to the protrusions. A second passivation layer and a pixel electrode are disposed on the first passivation layer. A color filter layer disposed on an inner surface of the second substrate has at least one through hole in the reflective portion. An overcoat layer disposed on the color filter layer has an open portion in the transmissive portion. A common electrode is disposed on the overcoat layer and a liquid crystal layer is disposed between the pixel electrode and the common electrode.
Abstract:
A color filter substrate for a transflective liquid crystal display device includes a substrate having a plurality of pixel regions, each of the plurality of pixel regions having reflective and transmissive portions, a black matrix on the substrate, a buffer layer on the black matrix having a first open portion corresponding to the transmissive portion of the pixel region and a patterned spacer within the reflective portion of the pixel region, a color filter layer on the buffer layer, the color filter layer having a first thickness within the reflective portion of the pixel region and a second thickness within the transmissive portion of the pixel region, and a common electrode on the color filter layer, wherein the buffer layer and the patterned spacer are a single body.
