Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, compared with the liquid crystal aligning film obtained by brushing treatment, the liquid crystal aligning film obtained by the photo-alignment method has the problem that the anisotropy of the polymer film with respect to the orientation direction is small.
If the anisotropy is small, sufficient liquid crystal orientation cannot be obtained, and when it is used as a liquid crystal display element, there are problems such as afterimages.
