Abstract
A liquid crystal display device, includes a first substrate including a first insulating substrate, a first thin film positioned on the first insulating substrate, and a first alignment layer positioned on the first thin film and including a first exposing area that exposes the first thin film, a second substrate facing the first substrate and including a second insulating substrate, a spacer positioned between the first substrate and the second substrate and including at least a part that corresponds to the first exposing area, and a liquid crystal layer positioned between the first substrate and the second substrate.
Claims9
A manufacturing method of a liquid crystal display device, comprising:
- providing a first substrate comprising a first insulating substrate, a first thin film positioned on the first insulating substrate, and a first alignment layer positioned on the first thin film, the first alignment layer comprising a first exposing area that exposes the first thin film;
- providing a second substrate comprising a second insulating substrate and a second alignment layer that is disposed on the second insulating substrate;
- positioning a liquid crystal polymer composition on one of the first substrate and the second substrate, the liquid crystal polymer composition comprising a polymer having greater chemical affinity for the first thin film than for the first alignment layer, and a liquid crystal molecule having greater chemical affinity for the first alignment layer than for the first thin film;
- disposing one of the first substrate and the second substrate on the other of the first substrate and the second substrate;
- and
- curing the liquid crystal polymer composition to form a spacer after the polymer of the liquid crystal polymer composition becomes concentrated in an area corresponding to the first exposing area.
