Abstract
A liquid crystal display device includes a substantially transparent substrate layer between a grating layer and a pixel electrode that comprises a solid conductor and an electrically conductive mesh. The device also includes a liquid crystal layer between said pixel electrode and a substantially transparent counter electrode that is arranged at a transparent cover plate. It further includes an active circuit element layer with a field effect transistor for controlling the pixel electrode. A method for manufacturing the liquid crystal display device is further disclosed wherein the pixel electrode is formed by printing a patterned substance onto the substrate layer and selectively plating a conductor onto said substance. The device may also comprise a conductor mesh comprising rows of conductor lines crossing with columns of conductor lines, wherein at least part of the conductor lines are randomly spaced from each other.
