The invention provides a reflection type
liquid crystal display device. The reflection type
liquid crystal display device comprises an upper substrate, a lower substrate, an upper orientation layer, a lower orientation layer, a
liquid crystal composition and a reflecting material, wherein the liquid
crystal composition is clamped between two orientation
layers and comprises dye, a liquid
crystal compound and a chiral agent, the reflecting material is located on the outer surface of the lower substrate, and the color of the liquid
crystal composition is complementary with the color of the reflecting material. The invention provides a novel reflection type display mode. Dye-doped liquid crystals are used for displaying, usage of polaroids is abandoned, and the problem of the low
reflectivity is fundamentally solved. Simultaneously, polaroids are not used, and brightness enhancement films are not required to be used for improving the
reflectivity, so that the cost is reduced greatly. According to the reflection type
liquid crystal display device, dye-doped liquid crystals are arranged between the upper substrate and the lower substrate, polaroids which are attached to surfaces of transparent substrates of traditional ordinary liquid crystal displayers are removed, the structure is simple, simultaneously, the light utilization ratio is greatly improved, and the reflection type
liquid crystal display device has the advantages of being high in
reflectivity, capable of achieving full-view display, low in cost and simple to produce and manufacture.
