1. A method of injecting liquid crystal material inside a liquid crystal cell having an injection port, and a gap between a first substrate and a second substrate, wherein each substrate include an orientation film, the method comprising;

  • inducing an electric field within the liquid crystal cell such that said electric field is substantially normal to said first substrate and to said second substrate; and

    injecting a liquid crystal material through the injection port and into the gap between the first and second substrates, wherein the electric field is induced by locating the first substrate and the second substrate between a first electrode and a second electrode and by applying a potential between the first electrode and the second electrode.
