To overcome this drawback, there is a method of using opaque glass as the lower substrate. A method of depositing metal oxides on the inside of the lower substrate. A method has been proposed in which a white scattering plate is attached to the inside of the cell using adhesive. However, in the above method, when a transparent electrode film and an insulating film are coated on opaque glass, cracks occur in the film due to the difference in expansion coefficient between the glass plate and those films. The method described above does not yield a completely opaque white film. In the above method, since an adhesive is used, there are process restrictions on the conditions for coating the vapor-deposited electrode and the insulating film thereon, and there is a problem that a highly reliable liquid crystal cell cannot be produced.

To be more specific, a thickener such as nitrocellulose, an organic solvent such as ethanol, butyl carbitol, or butyl cellosolve, and an organometallic compound such as aluminum, indium, silicon, or titanium are added. , alumina or titanium oxide fine powder (particle size around 0.5μ)
0.5 to 5% of the mixture is mixed uniformly into a paste, and this is printed on the entire surface of a glass substrate using a printing method. If this substrate is pre-dried at 150℃ for 20 minutes and then fired in a belt furnace at 500℃, an insulating film containing fine powder of alumina or titanium oxide is formed on the glass substrate, making it opaque and white. It becomes a film and performs a sufficient function as a reflective film.

Using the white substrate made in this way as one substrate and the other as an insulating substrate coated with only an insulating base film and a transparent electrode, if a liquid crystal cell is assembled with the white film on the inside, the display pattern will be on the back side of the lower substrate. It is possible to provide a color liquid crystal cell that can be displayed clearly against a white background without being reflected by other objects, is inexpensive, has high visibility, and is of industrial value.

A transparent electrode made of a metal oxide such as indium oxide is formed in a predetermined shape on the white substrate and glass substrate by vapor deposition, and an insulating film containing no alumina or titanium oxide powder is printed over the transparent electrode. It is then immersed in a silane coupling agent, which is a vertical surface treatment agent, and dried at 130°C. These two substrates are placed facing each other and bonded together using an epoxy adhesive (manufactured by Naztar, product name: SE4000) containing a 7μ spacer to form a liquid crystal cell. This cell is filled with a liquid crystal with negative dielectric anisotropy (manufactured by Chitsuso Corporation, product name EN-30) mixed with a phase change type guest-host liquid crystal material. The liquid crystal cell thus obtained becomes a positive display reflective color liquid crystal cell that displays a clear image on a white background.
