Abstract
The invention provides a transflective color liquid crystal display that provides a light transmissive display and reduces power consumption without reducing the brightness of the reflective display. In the liquid crystal display with a liquid crystal layer disposed between a pair of substrates, a reflective display unit and a transmissive display unit are formed in one pixel, and a retardation layer including a polymer liquid crystal and having a retardation of roughly ¼ wavelength is formed in the transmissive display unit.
