Electro-optical device producing wider reproducible color range having complementary color sub-pixel in transmission region and no reflection region among sub-pixels forming three primary-color filter system

摘要

An electro-optical device includes a plurality of sub-pixels each having a light transmission region and a light reflection region, wherein coloration layers of a same color are disposed on each of the light transmission region and light reflection region of each sub-pixel, the coloration layers being constituting a plurality of colors, and color display is implemented for either transmission display or reflection display, the transmission display being implemented by the light transmission region and the reflection display being implemented by the light reflection region, and wherein the number of colors of the coloration layers disposed in the light transmission regions is more than that of the coloration layers in the light reflection regions, whereby a reproducible color range in the transmission display is set to be wider than the reproducible color range in the reflection display, with respect to the xy chromaticity diagram.
