(57) [Summary] [Structure] In a liquid crystal device having an alignment control film and a liquid crystal layer between substrates having a pair of electrode layers, a photocurable composition in which the liquid crystal layer contains at least a liquid crystalline (meth) acrylate. Of the liquid crystal skeleton of the liquid crystal (meth) acrylate and the alignment direction of the ferroelectric liquid crystal in the state in which a voltage is not applied between the pair of electrode layers, which contains the photo-cured product and the ferroelectric liquid crystal. Provided is a liquid crystal display device characterized in that the angle formed is within 5 degrees. The liquid crystal display device of the present invention is a display device using a ferroelectric liquid crystal, which enables halftone display. Therefore, the liquid crystal display device of the present invention is useful as a display device capable of displaying halftones excellent in viewing angle characteristics by combining with a TFT device or the like. |
