Abstract

A reflective plate used in a liquid crystal display including a substrate, a first peak and depression layer of organic insulator on the substrate, a second peak and depression layer of organic insulator overlapping with the first peak and depression layer, and a reflective layer on the first and second peak and depression layers.

Claims (20)

1. A method for fabricating a reflective plate used in a liquid crystal display comprising:

depositing a first organic insulating layer on a substrate;

forming a plurality of first peak patterns having a predetermined distance from the first organic insulating layer by using a first mask;

depositing a second organic insulating layer on the substrate including the first peak patterns;

forming a plurality of second peak patterns between the first peak patterns from the second organic insulating layer by using a second mask; and

forming a reflective electrode on the first and second peak patterns;

wherein the second peak patterns have a different height from the first peak patterns, and overlap only a portion of the adjacent first peak pattern.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first and second peak patterns are softened by a curing bake process to form a plurality of peak patterns.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein each of the first peak patterns comprises a plurality of first peaks and each of the second peak pattern comprises a plurality of second peaks, wherein a highest point of each of the first peaks is located at different locations from a highest point of each of the second peaks.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein each of the first peak patterns comprises a plurality of first peaks and each of the second peak pattern comprises a plurality of second peaks, wherein a center of each of the first peaks is located at different locations from a center of each of the second peaks.

5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first and second organic insulating layers are photosensitive resin.

6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first mask comprises a light transmission portion and a light reflecting portion.

7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the second mask comprises a light transmission portion and a light reflecting portion.

8. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first mask is one of a transflective mask and a diffraction mask.

9. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the second mask is one of a transflective mask and a diffraction mask.

10. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first and second peak patterns have a plurality of peaks that are randomly arranged.

11. The method according to claim 1 , wherein each of the first peak patterns comprises a plurality of first peaks and each of the second peak pattern comprises a plurality of second peak overlapped with the first peaks.

12. The method according to claim 1 , wherein each of the first peak patterns comprises a plurality of first peaks and each of the second peak pattern comprises a plurality of second peaks overlapped with portions of the first peaks with a height less than one half height of the first peaks.

13. The method according to claim 1 , wherein a reflecting surface formed by the first and second peak patterns has final peak shapes in which a ratio of a height to a radius of the peak is 1:10.

14. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the second peak patterns between the first peak patterns directly contacts the substrate.
