The invention provides a liquid crystal display device having a wide viewing angle for transmissive display and reflective display. The liquid crystal display device according to the invention can include a homeotropic liquid crystal layer interposed between a pair of substrates. The liquid crystal display device has a transmissive display area and a reflective display area in each dot area. A liquid crystal layer thickness-adjustment layer can be interposed between at least the substrate of the pair of substrates and the liquid crystal layer. The liquid crystal layer thickness-adjustment layer reduces the liquid crystal layer thickness of the reflective display area in comparison with the liquid crystal layer thickness of the transmissive display area. On the substrate opposing the substrate with the liquid crystal layer thickness-adjustment layer, protrusions protruding from the inner surface of the substrate to the liquid crystal layer are formed.

A liquid crystal display (LCD) device includes: first and second substrates, inner surfaces of the first and second substrates facing each other; gate and data lines crossing each other to define a pixel region on the inner surface of the first substrate; a thin film transistor at the crossing of the gate and data lines; a pixel electrode connected with the thin film transistor; a color filter pattern on the inner surface of the second substrate; a first polarizing layer between the first and second substrates and adjacent to the color filter pattern; and a liquid crystal material between the first and second substrates.

The invention discloses a liquid crystal display panel comprising a first substrate, a second substrate and a liquid crystal layer between the first substrate and the second substrate. The first substrate comprises a plurality of pixels; each pixel comprises a corresponded pixel electrode including a main electrode and branch electrodes extending from the main electrode; the second substrate comprises a liner substrate and a public electrode layer formed on the liner substrate; the public electrode layer is provided with concave portions towards the liner substrate, and each concave portion right faces to the main electrode of one corresponded pixel electrode. Thus, the liquid crystal efficiency of the pixels can be improved, and the applicant range of a perpendicular aligning mode to a small high-resolution panel can be expanded.

A liquid crystal display device includes a liquid crystal layer 1 whose state is switchable between a light-transmitting state and a light-scattering state, a front substrate 3 and a rear substrate 2 between which the liquid crystal layer 1 is held, a pair of electrodes 4, 8 between which the liquid crystal layer 1 is interposed and which are configured to apply a voltage across the liquid crystal layer 1, and first and second alignment films 13, 12 respectively provided between the liquid crystal layer 1 and the front substrate 3 and between the liquid crystal layer 1 and the rear substrate 2. The liquid crystal layer 1 includes, in each of the pixels, a continuous wall 10, a plurality of small sections 14 separated by the wall 10, and a plurality of liquid crystal regions 11, each of which is formed in any one of the plurality of small sections 14. The plurality of liquid crystal regions 11 include first and second liquid crystal regions 11 which have directors 20 in a plane parallel to the liquid crystal layer 1. The directors 20 of the first and second liquid crystal regions 11 are oriented in different directions.
