Patent ID: 7508468

Claim:
A method of manufacturing a liquid crystal display device which has a plurality of picture elements arranged in matrix form, and which has in one picture element a first and a second regions, each having different transmittance-voltage characteristics from each other, comprising the steps of: forming a light blocking mask on a portion of a first substrate, corresponding to the second region; placing the first substrate and a second substrate to face each other so that a face of the first substrate, on which the light blocking mask is formed, is located outside, and sealing liquid crystals having been added with a polymer constituent to be polymerized by light between the first and second substrates; performing a first light irradiation that light is irradiated from the side of the first substrate to polymerize the polymer constituent in liquid crystals in the first region; removing the light blocking mask; and performing a second light irradiation that light is irradiated to polymerize the polymer constituent in liquid crystals in the first and second regions.
