Abstract
A method of the present invention includes the steps of forming an organic material film having projections and depressions, using a photo-embossing material, on an insulating film on an underlying electrode in a thin-film transistor of an active-matrix liquid crystal display device; exposing the insulating film in a contact-hole-forming-area by reducing a thickness of the organic material film by a dry etching to said organic material film; forming a contact hole and exposing the underlying by a dry etching to the exposed insulating film; and contacting the exposed underlying electrode with a reflective electrode by forming the reflective electrode on the resulting structure.
