Abstract
A liquid crystal device includes: a first substrate including a scanning line, a data line, a switching element, a pixel electrode and a storage capacitor associated with an intersection of the scanning line and the data line; a second substrate; and liquid crystal interposed between the substrates. A region where the pixel electrode is provided includes a reflective region and a transmissive region. An insulation layer is provided in the reflective region and the transmissive region to cover the switching element. A liquid crystal thickness adjustment layer is provided on the insulation layer in the reflective region. The pixel electrode is provided on the insulation layer in the transmissive region and on the liquid crystal thickness adjustment layer in the reflective region. Further, the storage capacitor includes an electrode disposed on the insulation layer in the reflective region and electrically connected to the pixel electrode.
