Abstract
A transflective liquid crystal display device provided with a plurality of pixels, and includes: a first polarizer, a first phase difference layer, a first substrate, a liquid crystal layer, a second substrate, a second phase difference layer, and a second polarizer. The first substrate includes a reflective layer. The first phase difference layer includes a first λ/2 plate and a first λ/4 plate. The second phase difference layer includes a second λ/2 plate and a second λ/4 plate. At least one of the first phase difference layer and the second phase difference layer further includes a positive C plate. The liquid crystal layer takes a twist alignment when no voltage is applied. Each of the plurality of pixels includes a reflective region in which light is reflected by the reflective layer to perform display and a transmissive region in which light is transmitted to perform display.
