Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display comprising: a first alignment treatment substrate having a first substrate, a first electrode layer formed on the first substrate, and a first alignment layer formed on the first electrode layer; and a second alignment treatment substrate having a second substrate, a second electrode layer formed on the second substrate, a second alignment layer formed on the second electrode layer, and a reactive liquid crystal layer formed on the second alignment layer and obtained by fixing a reactive liquid crystal; in which the first alignment treatment substrate and the second alignment treatment substrate are provided to have the first alignment layer and the reactive liquid crystal layer face to each other; and in which a ferroelectric liquid crystal is held between the first alignment layer and the reactive liquid crystal layer; wherein the ferroelectric liquid crystal exhibits mono-stability, and further wherein, when a negative voltage is applied to the second electrode layer, a molecular direction of the ferroelectric liquid crystal is changed by about 2 times a tilt angle of the ferroelectric liquid crystal parallel to a surface of the first alignment treatment substrate.
