Abstract
A main object of the present invention is to provide a liquid crystal display using a ferroelectric liquid crystal, with the ferroelectric liquid crystal in the mono-stability state and the excellent alignment stability. To achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention provides a liquid crystal display comprising: a reactive liquid crystal side substrate having a first substrate, an electrode layer formed on the first substrate, a first alignment layer formed on the electrode layer, and a reactive liquid crystal layer with a reactive liquid crystal fixed and formed on the first alignment layer; and a counter substrate having a second substrate, an electrode layer formed on the second substrate, and a second alignment layer formed on the electrode layer, wherein the reactive liquid crystal layer of the reactive liquid crystal side substrate and the second alignment layer of the counter substrate are disposed to face each other such that a liquid crystal layer including a ferroelectric liquid crystal and a polymerized product of a polymerizable monomer is sandwiched between the reactive liquid crystal side substrate and the counter substrate.
