However, these methods are not practical in terms of production process.

Film made by vapor deposition polymerization of polyimide resin in vacuum (%
Although methods have been disclosed in which a polyimide film formed by glow discharge (Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2003-29992) or a polyimide film (Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2003-290029) is used as an alignment film, even these methods do not necessarily result in sufficient alignment. The problem is a decrease in contrast.
