PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a liquid crystal display panel and a method of manufacturing the same. SOLUTION: The liquid crystal display panel includes an array substrate, an opposite substrate, and a liquid crystal layer. The array substrate includes a reflective electrode in which a pixel area is defined with a reflective area and a transmissive area, and a transparent electrode disposed in the transmissive area and including a plurality of first slit electrodes. The opposite substrate includes a first common electrode disposed in alignment with the reflective area, the first common electrode including a plurality of second slit electrodes each having a width wider than that of an individual first slit electrode. The liquid crystal layer is interposed between the array substrate and the opposite substrate. High transmission and high reflection characteristics are obtained by using characteristics of alignment along long axes of the slit electrodes. Further, wide viewing angle characteristics are also obtained. COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT
