The invention has an object to provide a liquid crystal display in which a
wide angle of view is obtained and a response time at a halftone can be
shortened by regulating an alignment orientation of a liquid crystal by
the use of a polymer fixation system in which a liquid crystal layer
containing a polymerizable component is sealed between substrates, and
the polymerizable component is polymerized while a voltage is applied to
the liquid crystal layer to fix a liquid crystal alignment. A liquid
crystal layer containing a polymer for regulating a pretilt angle of a
liquid crystal molecule and a tilt direction at a time of driving is
sealed between two substrates arranged opposite to each other. A
plurality of stripe-like electrode patterns in which a pattern width is
formed to be wider than a width of a space, are arranged so that the
liquid crystal molecule is aligned in a longitudinal direction of the
pattern when the polymer is formed by solidifying a polymerizable
component mixed in the liquid crystal layer while a voltage is applied to
the liquid crystal layer.
