Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a liquid crystal display, comprising the steps of:forming an orientation film over an entire electrode substrate, said electrode substrate having external connection terminals at a peripheral portion thereof;processing a surface of the orientation film by a rubbing method;irradiating the orientation film on the external connection terminals, with an ultraviolet laser beam so as to remove the orientation film from the external connection terminals; andwherein said step of irradiating includes adjusting an energy density of the ultraviolet laser beam so as to be within a range of 110 to 210 mJ/cm.sup.2 ; andwherein said adjusting a beam intensity includes adjusting the beam intensity so as to be concentrated in the wavelength range in which molecular bonds of the orientation film are decomposed and sublimated.
