Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, the brushing method of rubbing the surface of a liquid crystal alignment film made of polyimide or the like has problems of generating dust and static electricity.
In addition, due to the high-definition of liquid crystal display elements in recent years, the unevenness caused by the electrodes on the corresponding substrate or the switching active elements for liquid crystal driving, it is sometimes impossible to rub the surface of the liquid crystal alignment film evenly with a cloth, and it is impossible to achieve uniformity.
