DISPLAY DEVICE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME
First Claim
1. A display device, comprising:
- a first substrate comprising a pixel electrode and a domain-forming layer comprising a depression pattern, the depression pattern providing a liquid crystal domain in a pixel area;
a second substrate facing the first substrate, the second substrate comprising a common electrode; and
a liquid crystal layer disposed between the first substrate and the second substrate, the liquid crystal layer comprising a reactive mesogen (RM) to fix liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal domain.

Abstract
A display device may include a first substrate, a second substrate, and a liquid crystal layer. The first substrate may include a domain-forming layer including a depression pattern for forming a liquid crystal domain in a pixel area and a pixel electrode formed on the domain-forming layer. The second substrate may face the first substrate. The second substrate may include a common electrode formed on the entire surface thereof. The liquid crystal layer may be disposed between the first substrate and the second substrate. The liquid crystal layer may include a reactive mesogen (RM) which fixes liquid crystal molecules formed in the liquid crystal domain. Since a liquid crystal domain may be formed without a separate pattern on a common electrode, a display device having an enhanced aperture ratio and an enhanced viewing angle may be manufactured.
