To provide a reflection-type liquid crystal display device and a method for manufacturing the device, in which irregular reflectance is suppressed and high diffusion reflectance and high contrast are obtained.
A reflection electrode 8 is formed to have a flat face, having a reflecting function and a group of recessed structures 19 for diffusion having a scattering function in a specified area ratio, and the group of recessed structures is distributed, in such a manner that if α is defined as the distance from the center of each recess to the pixel edge satisfies α≥9 μm. The recessed structure is produced in the following processes. An organic photosensitive resin is applied as an interlayer insulating film 18, holes are formed in the position where the recesses are to be formed, an organic photosensitive resin is applied thereon to adjust the shape of the side face of the recessed structure into a curved face, the photosensitive resin is exposed and developed to form contact holes, while the interlayer, insulating film in the nonpixel display region which includes the mounting part of the driver, is removed, and the photosensitive resin is heat treated to be crosslinked.
