Liquid crystal display device
View Patent ↗According to one embodiment, a liquid crystal display device includes a first substrate including an outer peripheral wiring which is formed along an outer periphery of an active area that displays an image, and which has a first reflective surface, a second substrate including a reflective layer which is formed by a plurality of segments that are mutually spaced apart, and which has a second reflective surface opposed to the first reflective surface, a sealant formed of a photosensitive resin material, which surrounds the active area, is formed along the outer peripheral wiring, and attaches the first substrate and the second substrate, and a liquid crystal layer held in a cell gap in an inside surrounded by the sealant.
1. A liquid crystal display device comprising:
a first substrate including an outer peripheral wiring which is formed along an outer periphery of an active area that displays an image, and which has a first reflective surface, and the first substrate including a first insulation film covering the outer peripheral wiring;
a second substrate including a second insulation film opposed to the first insulation film;
a reflective layer which is located between the first insulation film and the second insulation film and is formed by a plurality of segments that are mutually spaced apart, the reflective layer having a second reflective surface opposed to the first reflective surface;
a sealant formed of a photosensitive resin material, which surrounds the active area, is formed along the outer peripheral wiring, and attaches the first substrate and the second substrate in a state in which a cell gap is created between the first substrate and the second substrate; and
a liquid crystal layer held in the cell gap in an inside surrounded by the sealant,
wherein the reflective layer includes a first segment which is opposed to a first end portion of the outer peripheral wiring, the first end portion being located on an active area side, and extends to the active area side from the first end portion, and a second segment which is opposed to a second end portion of the outer peripheral wiring, the second end portion being located on an end portion side of the first substrate, and extends to the end portion side of the first substrate from the second end portion.
2. The liquid crystal display device of claim 1 , wherein the reflective layer is formed on a first surface of the first insulation film, the first surface being opposed to the second insulation film, or the reflective layer is formed on a second surface of the second insulation film, the second surface being opposed to the first insulation film.
3. The liquid crystal display device of claim 1 , wherein each of the segments is formed in an island shape or a stripe shape.
4. The liquid crystal display device of claim 1 , wherein the reflective layer further includes a third segment of a stripe shape between the first segment and the second segment, the third segment extending in a direction of extension of the outer peripheral wiring.
5. The liquid crystal display device of claim 1 , wherein the outer peripheral wiring and the reflective layer are formed of a material including titanium (Ti), aluminum (Al), molybdenum (Mo), tungsten (W) or silver (Ag).
