Patent attributes
A liquid crystal display device includes a first substrate, a second substrate and a liquid crystal interposed between said first and second substrates. The first substrate includes a plurality of thin film transistors, an organic insulating layer, said organic insulating layer including a contact hole exposing an output of each of said thin film transistors, a plurality of first electrodes disposed on said organic insulating layer and each connected with said output, and a viewing-angle varying section between the first electrodes, the viewing-angle varying section including a curved surface of a half-cylindrical shape and protruding from the organic insulating layer. The viewing-angle varying section has a symmetrical shape, and the portions of said first electrode disposed at each side of said viewing-angle varying section asymmetrically extend onto the curved surface of said viewing-angle varying section, to thereby change the reflection factor depending on an observation angle.
