A liquid crystal display apparatus comprising a liquid crystal display panel and a touch panel is disclosed. A first transparent electrode is disposed on an upper surface of the liquid crystal display panel for displaying an image. A second transparent electrode is disposed on a lower surface of a retardation member and the second transparent electrode is opposite to the first transparent electrode. Accordingly, the entire thickness of the liquid crystal display apparatus may be decreased, and the manufacturing cost of the liquid crystal display apparatus may be reduced.

Light guide plate and liquid crystal display having the same

A liquid crystal display apparatus is disclosed. A first transparent electrode is disposed on an upper surface of the liquid crystal display panel for displaying an image. A second transparent electrode is disposed on a lower surface of a polarizer, and the second transparent electrode is opposite to the first transparent electrode. Accordingly, the entire thickness of the liquid crystal display apparatus may be decreased, and the manufacturing cost of the liquid crystal display apparatus may be reduced.

Disclosed is a reflection type liquid crystal display (LCD) and a manufacturing method thereof. A first substrate on which a pixel array is formed is prepared. A second substrate is formed facing the first substrate. A liquid crystal layer is formed between the first and second substrates. A reflective electrode is formed on the first substrate. The reflective electrode includes a plurality of first regions and a plurality of second regions having a height difference relative to the first regions, in which a first total sum in length components of the second regions arranged along a direction perpendicular to a first direction is greater than a second total sum in length components of the second regions arranged along a direction perpendicular to a second direction such that the second regions have higher reflectivity in the first direction relative to the second direction.

A reflective electrode of oriented micro lenses defined by the first grooves and the second grooves is provided to enhance a reflection efficiency. The contrast and image quality are improved remarkably. The micro lenses are suitable for electronic displays that need a high reflectivity towards a specific direction. Since the reflective electrodes may be formed by an improved exposure and development process, the manufacturing cost and time would be reduced.
