Abstract:
A liquid crystal display (LCD) comprising:a first substrate;a first electrode formed on a front surface of the first electrode;a second electrode spaced from the first electrode on the surface of the first electrode;a first vertical alignment film formed on a surface of a resultant in which the first electrode and the second electrode are formed, wherein a rubbing direction of the first vertical alignment film forms about 0 to 30 degree from the length direction of the second electrode toward a right or left direction;a first polarization film disposed on a back surface of the first substrate opposite to the front surface of the first substrate;a second substrate having a surface opposite to the first substrate;a second vertical alignment film formed on the opposite surface of the second substrate, wherein a rubbing direction of the second vertical alignment film forms about 0 to 30 degree from the length direction of the second electrode toward a right or left direction;a liquid crystal layer interposed between the first vertical alignment film and the second vertical alignment film, the liquid crystal layer comprising a plurality of liquid crystal molecules, the liquid crystal molecules having a single uniform tilt angle with respect to the first substrate when no voltage is applied; anda second polarization film formed on a back surface of the second substrate opposite to the opposite surface of the second substrate, whereby collisions between the liquid crystal molecules during application of a voltage to the LCD are prevented, thus decreasing the response time of the LCD.
