Abstract
A curved liquid crystal display (LCD) device includes: a first curved substrate; a second curved substrate; a first curved liquid crystal alignment layer disposed between the first curved substrate and the second curved substrate; a second curved liquid crystal alignment layer includes polymerized reactive mesogens, and a polymerization initiator; and a liquid crystal layer including first and second liquid crystal molecules disposed between the first curved liquid crystal alignment layer and the second curved liquid crystal alignment layer. In an initial state when no electric field is applied, the first liquid crystal molecules are relatively vertically aligned as compared with the second liquid crystal molecules with respect to the first curved substrate and the second liquid crystal molecules are relatively tilt-aligned as compared with the first liquid crystal molecules with respect to the first curved substrate, wherein the first curved liquid crystal alignment layer does not have a polymerization initiator.
