Abstract

A method of fabricating a liquid crystal display device including the steps of forming a liquid crystal layer by filling a liquid crystal composition containing a polymerizable monomer into a gap between a pair of substrates having electrodes; and polymerizing the monomer by radiating ultraviolet light to the liquid crystal composition while applying a prescribed liquid crystal driving voltage between opposing electrodes. The method also includes a step of applying additional ultraviolet radiation to the liquid crystal composition, after polymerizing the monomer, without applying the liquid crystal driving voltage or while applying a voltage of a magnitude that does not substantially drive the liquid crystal.
