Abstract

Provided is a color filter 29 for reflection-type liquid crystal display devices, which comprises a light-reflecting layer 22, a transparent electrode 23, and a colorant layer 24 with electroconductive grains therein, as laminated in that order on a transparent or opaque substrate 21. Also provided is a reflection-type liquid crystal display device comprising the color filter, in which a substrate 27 having a transparent electrode 26 formed thereon is so combined with the color filter that the transparent electrode 26 faces the light input side of the color filter via a liquid crystal layer 25 existing therebetween. With that constitution, the device enjoys a broad angle of visibility and is not troubled by color drift (color mixing) The device can produce light images in light conditions.
