Curved liquid crystal display and method of manufacturing the same

A method for manufacturing a curved liquid crystal display, comprising:

• forming a pixel electrode on a first substrate;
• forming a common electrode on a second substrate;
• forming a first alignment layer on the pixel electrode;
• forming a second alignment layer on the common electrode;
• forming a liquid crystal layer between the first alignment layer and the second alignment layer, the liquid crystal layer comprising liquid crystal molecules and a reactive mesogen;
• irradiating the liquid crystal layer with light while applying an electric field;
• and
• forming the first substrate and the second substrate to have curved sides,
• wherein the first alignment layer and the second alignment layer respectively comprise a polymer comprising at least one main chain and a plurality of side chains connected to the main chain, and
• wherein at least one of the polymer of the first alignment layer and the polymer of the second alignment layer comprises at least one side chain comprising a photo-reactor.
