PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make it possible to obtain a wide visual field angle characteristic by forming a ground surface layer which does not hinder the axisymmetrical orientation of liquid crystal molecules on the surfaces of at least one of a pair of substrates, which surfaces come into contact with liquid crystal regions, with the weak interaction with the liquid crystal molecules. SOLUTION: A liquid crystal layer (display medium layer) held between a pair of the substrates 202 and 204 on which transparent electrodes consisting of ITO are formed in a liquid crystal display element 200 has the liquid crystal regions 200 substantially enclosed by a polymer wall 206. The ground surface layers 214, 216, which reduce the interaction with the liquid crystal molecules are formed on the transparent electrodes on the surfaces of a pair of the substrates 202, 204 of the liquid crystal display element 200 which come into contact with the liquid crystal layer. The ground surface layers 214, 216 prevent the disturbance of the axisymmetrical orientation of the liquid crystal molecules in the process that the liquid crystal drops grow in the phase sepn. process. The ground surface layers 214, 216, which are weak in the interaction with the liquid crystal molecules and do not hinder the axisymetrical orientation of the liquid crystal molecules are formed on the surfaces of at least one of a pair of the substrates 202, 204, which surfaces come into contact with the liquid crystal regions. |
