Abstract:
1. A method of forming a liquid crystal display device having first and second substrates comprising: forming a photo-alignment layer on the first substrate; irradiating the photo-alignment layer with ultraviolet light through a polarizer system including a light absorptive polarizer holder having a lattice shape, the light absorptive polarizer holder holding a quartz substrate unit having at least one quartz layer, the at least one quartz layer having an angle relative to an incident angle of the ultraviolet light such that the at least one quartz layer divides the ultraviolet light into a first light portion having a first polarization direction and a second light portion having a second polarization direction, wherein the first light portion is transmitted by the at least one quartz layer and the second light portion is reflected by the at least one quartz layer; and forming a liquid crystal layer between the first and second substrates.
