Provided is a method of manufacturing new liquid crystal display device according to an embodiment of the present invention. Firstly, an alignment film is formed on a substrate. The alignment film is divided into a first alignment film formed using, as a precursor, liquid-state polyimide that contains a photodecomposition substance and a second alignment film formed using, as a precursor, a polyamic acid that does not contain a photodecomposition substance. UV light is irradiated to the alignment film, and decomposed substances formed by irradiation of the UV light is removed by an at least two-step removing process. By the method of manufacturing a liquid crystal display device according to the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, bright spots are minimized in pixels and a brightness of black is lowered, so that a liquid crystal display device with a high contrast ratio can be realized.

An alignment film for liquid crystal display device includes a first portion positioned towards to the liquid crystal layer and a second portion positioned away from the liquid crystal layer. The first portion provides improved anchoring force while the second portion exhibits a lower volume resistance than the first portion. Thus, AC image sticking and DC image sticking can be minimized at the same time.

A method of manufacturing a patterned retarder includes forming a retarder material layer by applying a retarder material to a substrate; drying the retarder material layer at a first temperature; exposing the retarder material layer to linearly-polarized UV, wherein the retarder material layer has an optical anisotropic property; and heat treating the retarder material layer at a second temperature higher than the first temperature to increase the optical anisotropic property of the retarder material layer.
