That is, as a function of the stereoscopic image display apparatus, it is necessary to provide an image having parallax between the left and right eyes respectively.
- the eyeglasses-free type includes a lenticular lens type and a parallax type noria type.
- Parallax noria is a light shielding plate (barrier) in which a large number of thin vertically striped openings, that is, slits are formed extending in directions parallel to one another.
- a display panel is disposed on the back side of the parallax panel, and in this display panel, pixels for the left eye and for the right eye are repeatedly arranged in the direction orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the slits. This makes each The light from the pixels is partially blocked when passing through Parallax Noria.

- a light source 1010 is provided on the back side of the liquid crystal display panel 1021.
- light emitted from the light source 1010 passes through the left-eye pixel 1043 and the right-eye pixel 1044 of the transmissive liquid crystal display panel 1021, and then passes through the slit 1007a of the parallax noria 1007. When passing through, it is partially shielded and emits toward the area EL or ER respectively. For this reason, the observer positions the left eye 1052 in the area EL and positions the right eye 1051 in the area ER, whereby the image for the left eye is input to the left eye 1052 and the right eye 1051 is input. The image for the image is input, and the observer can recognize the stereoscopic image.

This allows the observer to recognize a stereoscopic image.
- the Noralux Noria system is a system that "hides" light beams that do not require it with a barrier, while the lenticular lens system is a system that changes the direction in which light travels. In comparison, the brightness of the display screen does not decrease in principle. For this reason, application to terminal devices such as portable devices where high brightness display and low power consumption performance are particularly important is being considered.

- light from a light source (not shown) is transmitted through the liquid crystal layer (not shown) of the liquid crystal panel to form an image.
- external light such as natural light and room illumination light is transmitted through the liquid crystal layer, and this light is reflected by the metal film and transmitted again through the liquid crystal layer to form an image. Because of this, there is much ambient light In some places, ambient light can be used as part of the light source.

- this transflective liquid crystal display device while light from the backlight is transmitted once in the color filter layer corresponding to the transmission portion, a color filter corresponding to the reflection portion is used. In the layer, it is transmitted twice: when external light is incident and when it is emitted. Therefore, if the color filter layers are similarly arranged between the transmitting portion and the reflecting portion, the transmittance of the reflecting portion is lowered to cause a problem that the color tone of the display becomes dark. Therefore, a technique has been proposed in which the region corresponding to the reflective portion is configured of a region in which the color filter layer is formed and a region in which the color filter layer is not formed.

That is, while the entire portion of the transmission electrode 500 8 is covered by the color filter layer 5011, the reflection electrode 500 3 is not covered by the color filter layer 5011! /, An area is generated!

For this reason, although the effect of blurring the image of the pixel is exhibited by weakening the imaging effect on the observation surface, the degree of the effect is small, and good separation characteristics can be realized. Due to these two features, even when a through hole having a step-like opening is used as in the present embodiment, the opening width in the Y-axis direction is smooth with respect to the X-axis direction as in the second embodiment described above.

- the position of the through hole 401Ld in the pixel for the left eye 401L in the X axis direction is different from the position of the through hole 402Ld in the pixel for the left eye 402L in the X axis direction. Therefore, the position of the image of the through hole 401Ld projected on the observation surface by the lenticular lens and the position of the image of the through hole 402Ld are different. As a result, it is possible to prevent the phenomenon that the position of the through hole image is the same in all pixels, and to reduce the influence of the through hole.
