Abstract
A liquid crystal display device includes a first substrate, a first electrode pattern formed on the first substrate, a first molecular orientation film, formed on the first substrate to cover the first electrode pattern, for orienting liquid crystal molecules. The display device further includes a second substrate formed in a position parallel to and apart from the first substrate, a second electrode pattern formed on a surface of the second substrate facing the first substrate, a second molecular orientation film, formed on the second substrate to cover the second electrode pattern, for orienting the liquid crystal molecules. And the display device further includes a ferroelectric liquid crystal layer filled in a gap between the first molecular orientation film and the second molecular orientation film. In the liquid crystal display device, the first molecular orientation film orients the liquid crystal molecules inside the ferroelectric liquid crystal layer in a first direction, and the second molecular orientation film orients the liquid crystal molecules inside the ferroelectric liquid crystal layer in a second direction.
