Abstract
A liquid crystal display devicehas subpixelshaving a light-transmissive regionand a light-reflective region. A color filter layercorresponding to an identification patternthat it is desired to be displayed when the liquid crystal display device's power is off is formed at the light-reflective regions, so that even when the liquid crystal display deviceis in the non-driven state, incident external light emerges as outgoing light having the colors of the color layers corresponding to the identification pattern, and hence the identification pattern can be displayed. Thus, any desired pattern can be displayed in the liquid crystal display device's non-driven state, so that a liquid crystal display device with extensive expression and superior display characteristics is provided.
