A liquid crystal display includes a display substrate which includes a plurality of pixel areas and is curved in a first direction, an opposite substrate which faces the display substrate, is coupled to the display substrate, and is curved along the display substrate, and a liquid crystal layer disposed between the display substrate and the opposite substrate, where a plurality of domains are defined in each of the plurality of pixel areas, directions in which liquid crystal molecules of the liquid crystal layer are aligned are different from each other in at least two domains among the plurality of domains, and the plurality of domains is arranged in a second direction crossing the first direction.

Liquid crystal display

A curved display device including a plurality of pixels that may be bent in a first direction crossing a second direction. The curved display device may include first and second substrates facing each other, and a liquid crystal layer interposed between the first and second substrates.

Curved display device and fabricating method thereof

An apparatus and method for measuring a pretilt angle of a liquid crystal (LC) are disclosed. The method includes irradiating polarized light on an LC cell including a first substrate, a second substrate facing the first substrate, and an LC layer between the first substrate and the second substrate. At least one of the first substrate and the second substrate includes a minute branch electrode. Irradiated light is scanned within a predetermined angle range in a direction not parallel to the minute branch electrode, an intensity of light that is transmitted through the LC cell is detected, and a pretilt angle of the LC is obtained by using a light intensity detection signal corresponding to the transmitted light.
