Abstract

PURPOSE:To guarantee insulation between counter electrodes on a pair of substrates and to improve electrode transparency of a transparent electrode by using a specific mixed mineral insulated film. CONSTITUTION:A mixed mineral insulated film 2 using two or more kinds out of a ZrO2, a TiO2, and an SiO2 is used as a mineral insulated film to guarantee the electrical insulation of the transference electrode 4. In other words, the transparent electrodes 4 are formed on a pair of transparent substrates 1, and the mixed mineral insulated film 2 is formed extending over the entire plane of both transparent substrates 1 covering the transparent electrode 4, and a liquid crystal orienting film 3 is formed covering the entire plane of the mixed mineral insulated film 2. Therefore, short-circuit between the electrodes can be prevented from occurring, and also, the matching of a refractive index between the transparent electrode 4 and the mineral insulated film 2 can be taken. Thereby, the electrode transparency can be improved, and it is possible to prevent the electrode transparency where only the electrode on one side is observed being floated from occurring.

i4 is formed, and both transparent substrates 1 cover the transparent electrode 4.
A mixed inorganic insulating film 2 is formed on almost the entire surface. A liquid crystal alignment WA3 is formed covering the entire surface of this mixed inorganic insulating film 2. When the refractive indexes of the transparent electrode 4 and the mixed inorganic insulating film 2 are matched, the transparent electrode 4 and the mixed inorganic insulating film 2 become optically almost equal, and the outline of the transparent "thf!4" is optically similar to that of the mixed inorganic insulating film 2. Since it becomes difficult to distinguish from WA2, the electrode support is improved.If the refractive index is the same, the outline can be made completely invisible.The mixed inorganic insulating film 2 and the liquid crystal alignment WA3 have different refractive indexes. However, since the interface is spread out in a flat plane, the outline is not visually visible and there is no problem.
