Abstract

A sample for measuring an alignment axis for a liquid crystal display, a method of manufacturing the sample, and a method of measuring an alignment axis are disclosed. The sample includes a first substrate, a first alignment layer positioned on the first substrate, and a second alignment layer. The second alignment layer is positioned on the first alignment layer, and has an anisotropy more than an anisotropy of the first alignment layer.

Claims (11)

1. A sample for measuring an alignment axis for a liquid crystal display comprising:

a first substrate;

a first alignment layer positioned on the first substrate; and

a second alignment layer that is positioned on the first alignment layer and has an anisotropy greater than an anisotropy of the first alignment layer,

wherein a thickness of an isotropic layer of the first alignment layer is greater than a thickness of an anisotropic layer of the first alignment layer.

2. The sample for measuring the alignment axis of claim 1 , wherein the second alignment layer is formed of a material having an anisotropy greater than the anisotropy of the first alignment layer.

3. The sample for measuring the alignment axis of claim 1 , wherein an alignment direction of the second alignment layer is substantially the same as an alignment direction of the first alignment layer.

4. The sample for measuring the alignment axis of claim 1 , wherein the second alignment layer is formed of reactive mesogen (RM).

5. The sample for measuring the alignment axis of claim 1 , wherein a thickness of the first alignment layer is less than a thickness of the second alignment layer.

6. The sample for measuring the alignment axis of claim 1 , wherein an anisotropic area of the second alignment layer has a thickness of about several thousands Å.

7. The sample for measuring the alignment axis of claim 1 , wherein the first substrate is a thin film transistor array substrate or a color filter substrate.
