Claim:
1. A display device, comprising: a substrate comprising a pixel on the substrate; a cover layer disposed on the substrate and extending in a first direction to provide a tunnel-shaped cavity extending in a second direction crossing the first direction corresponding to the pixel; a liquid crystal layer disposed in the tunnel-shaped cavity, the liquid crystal layer having an upper surface, a lower surface facing the upper surface, and side surfaces connected to the upper surface and the lower surface; a first electrode disposed between the liquid crystal layer and the cover layer and a second electrode spaced apart from the first electrode, the first and the second electrodes being configured to apply an electric field to the liquid crystal layer; and a sealant layer covering the cover layer, wherein the upper surface and opposing two side surfaces in the first direction are covered with the cover layer, wherein opposing two side surfaces in the second direction are covered with the sealant layer, and wherein the liquid crystal layer comprises a plurality of domains defined by liquid crystal molecules pre-aligned in different directions.
