Claim Text:
1. A liquid crystal display comprising: a first substrate; a second substrate disposed facing the first substrate; an alignment layer disposed on at least one of the first substrate and the second substrate, wherein the alignment layer comprises a major alignment material, and a vertical photo-alignment material, and wherein the vertical photo-alignment material is a polymer that comprises a first vertical functional group and a photo-reactive group; and a liquid crystal layer interposed between the first substrate and the second substrate, wherein the major alignment material and the vertical photo-alignment material are in a micro-phase separation state from each other in a direction substantially vertically with respect to the first substrate, wherein a molar concentration ratio of the vertical photo-alignment material to the major alignment material increases toward a surface of the alignment layer closer to the liquid crystal layer; wherein liquid crystal molecules of the liquid crystal layer are inclined by the alignment layer.
