Viewing angle compensating plate and liquid crystal display panel including the same

1. A method of forming a viewing angle compensating plate, comprising:

forming a first protection film comprising triacetyl cellulose over one side of a polarizing film;

forming a second protection film comprising triacetyl cellulose over another side of a polarizing film, the second protection film having a linear thermal expansion coefficient that is substantially identical to that of the first protection film and a thickness difference between the thickness of the first protection film and the second protection film is under 20% of an average of the thickness of the first protection film and the second protection film; and

forming a discotic liquid crystal layer over the second protection film,

wherein forming the discotic liquid crystal layer comprises applying a solvent comprising discotic liquid crystal molecules to the second protection film, wherein the solvent comprising the discotic liquid crystal molecules is directly in contact with the second protection film.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the step of forming a polarizing film comprises:

stretching a polyvinyl alcohol film in one direction, wherein the one direction of stretching corresponds to a direction of an absorption axis of the polarizing film; and

adsorbing at least one of iodine and diachronic pigment to the polyvinyl alcohol film.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the step of forming the discotic liquid crystal layer further comprises: vaporizing the solvent.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first and second protection films are made of the same material.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first protection film and the second protection film have a substantially same thickness.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the slope of the axis of the liquid crystal molecules becomes larger according to the direction perpendicular to the second protection film.
