The brightness improvement of a transflective liquid crystal display in a unified configuration, having a single‐cell gap and a vertically aligned (VA) liquid crystal (LC) mode, was demonstrated. The photo‐patterned retarder was used to compensate the optical path difference between the transmissive and reflective regions. It was made of a UV‐polymerizable liquid crystal (LC) through a single patterning process. High reflectance and fast response characteristics were achieved in our unified configuration.
