Polarizing plate, display, and electronic apparatus

A liquid crystal display has a driving substrate on which transparent pixel electrodes are formed; a counter substrate on which a counter electrode is formed; and a liquid crystal material disposed between the driving and counter substrates. Liquid crystal material molecules are oriented orthogonally to the substrates. The driving substrate has pixel capacitors and pixel transistors formed thereon, with the pixel capacitors disposed under the pixel electrodes. The pixel transistors act to write signal voltages to the pixel electrodes and pixel capacitors. The pixel electrodes have slits formed over the pixel capacitors to orient the the liquid crystal material molecules orthogonally and in a split manner. Each of the pixel capacitors has an electrode for reflecting light and forms a reflective region. Liquid crystal material portions in the reflective regions have a thickness greater than half the thickness of liquid crystal material portions in other transmissive regions.

In a normally black mode liquid crystal display, the liquid crystal display and the method prevents the light leakage arising from existing the step for adjusting the thickness of the liquid crystal layer between the reflective electrode and the transparent electrode and that high contrast displaying can be possible. The interval adjustment layer is formed between the first substrate that the reflective electrode is formed in the reflective region and the transparent electrode is formed in the transmissive region, and the second substrate that is fixed at predetermined interval from the first substrate. This interval adjustment layer is adjuster of the thickness of the liquid crystal layer in the reflective region on the second substrate, and the thickness of the liquid crystal layer in the reflective region is preferable to be set approximately the thickness of the liquid crystal layer of the transmissive region.
