Abstract
A reflection-type liquid crystal display device, having a pair of substrates, at least one of which is transparent, a liquid crystal layer sandwiched between the pair of substrates, a light reflector section provided between the liquid crystal layer and one of the pair of substrates, and a polymeric medium layer with fine silver particles precipitated on the surface, as formed at the light reflector section. The reflection-type liquid crystal display is produced by the steps of: applying a mixture containing monovalent silver and a photosensitive polymeric medium; exposing the mixture to light, thereby photolithographically forming a light reflector layer of desired pattern; heating the light reflector layer under a predetermined temperature condition, thereby precipitating fine silver particles on the surface of the light reflector layer; and confronting a transparent substrate with the light reflector layer-formed substrate, and sandwiching a liquid crystal layer between the substrates.
