A method for forming an alignment layer of a liquid crystal display device, comprising:
- providing a substrate having a plurality of unit panels formed thereon;
- loading the substrate onto a stage;
- selectively dropping an alignment material onto a first one of the unit panel regions by an alignment material dropping unit having a plurality of heads, each of the heads having a plurality of holes arranged along a row at regularly-spaced interval distance d1;
- and
- forming an alignment layer on the substrate to have a uniform thickness.
An apparatus for forming an alignment layer of a liquid crystal display device, comprising:
- an alignment material dropping unit including a plurality of heads each having a plurality of holes for dropping an alignment material onto a substrate;
- an alignment material supplying unit for supplying an alignment material to the alignment material dropping unit;
- and
- a connection line unit for connecting the alignment material dropping unit and the alignment material supply unit, wherein a first portion of the plurality of heads are disposed at an angle θ with respect to a second portion of the plurality of heads.
An apparatus for forming an alignment layer of a liquid crystal display device, comprising:
- an alignment material dropping unit having a plurality of holes arranged in an offset pattern for dropping an alignment material onto a substrate;
- an alignment material supply unit for supplying an alignment material to the alignment material dropping unit;
- and
- a connection line unit for connecting the alignment material dropping unit and the alignment material supplying unit.
