The invention relates to a liquid crystal display used as a display unit of an electronic apparatus and a method of manufacturing the same and provides a liquid crystal display which can achieve high display quality and a method of manufacturing the same. A liquid crystal including a polymeric component and having a specific resistance of 1×1013 Ω·cm or more at room temperature (25° C.) is dispensed onto a TFT substrate. After combining the TFT substrate with an opposite substrate in vacuum, the atmospheric pressure is restored to fill a gap between the TFT substrate and the opposite substrate with the liquid crystal, thereby forming a liquid crystal layer. The polymeric component is polymerized while applying a predetermined voltage to the liquid crystal layer to form polymer layers.
