Abstract

A low cost transflective type liquid crystal display is provided which can display a bright image with high contrast under both indoor and outdoor illumination environments. The liquid crystal display performing transmission type display and reflection type display, includes: a plurality of pixels surrounded on a substrate 10 by a plurality of gate electrodes 11 and a plurality of source electrodes 15 arranged perpendicularly to the gate electrodes; a switching element 19 arranged in each pixel and disposed neat at the intersection between each gate electrode and each source electrode; and a pixel electrode 16 connected to the switching element, wherein the pixel electrode is constituted of a transparent conductive layer and a conductive member 17 having a light reflection function and electrically connected to the transparent conductive layer.
