Fig. 2 is the partial cutaway diagram of the liquid crystal indicator of one embodiment of the invention.Please refer to Fig. 2, the liquid crystal indicator 1000 of the present embodiment comprises an image element array substrates 1100, a subtend substrate 1200 and a liquid crystal layer 1300.Image element array substrates 1100 has a plurality of pixel electrodes 1110, in Fig. 2, slightly with individual layer, represents a plurality of pixel electrodes 1110.Subtend substrate 1200 has a common electrode 1210 of pixel-oriented array base palte 1100.In addition a configurable both alignment layers 1190 on the image element array substrates 1100 of the present embodiment, and a configurable both alignment layers 1220 on subtend substrate 1200.Both alignment layers 1220 covers common electrode 1210 and near liquid crystal layer 1300, both alignment layers 1190 covers pixel electrode 1110 and close liquid crystal layer 1300.Liquid crystal layer 1300 is disposed between the pixel electrode 1110 of image element array substrates 1100 and the common electrode 1210 of subtend substrate 1200.If liquid crystal indicator 1000 adopts penetration or semi-penetration, semi-reflective design, can more comprise that a backlight module 1500 is so that area source to be provided, and image element array substrates 1100 is disposed on backlight module 1500 with subtend substrate 1200.
In addition, liquid crystal indicator 1000 can more comprise a chromatic filter layer 1400.Chromatic filter layer 1400 can comprise a black matrix 1410 and a plurality of color filter films 1420.Adjacent black matrix 1410 has opening and can accommodating color filter film 1420.The chromatic filter layer 1400 of the present embodiment is that to be disposed at image element array substrates 1100 be example, but chromatic filter layer 1400 is also configurable in subtend substrate 1200, and is positioned at 1210 of subtend substrate 1200 and common electrodes.
The liquid crystal indicator 1000 of the present embodiment more comprises that two liquid crystal stablize polymeric layer 1306, is formed on common electrode 1210 and pixel electrode 1110 and Fluid Contacting crystal layer 1300.Yet liquid crystal indicator 1000 also can only have a liquid crystal to stablize polymeric layer 1306, and configurable on common electrode 1210 or pixel electrode 1110.
When formation liquid crystal is stablized polymeric layer 1306, a plurality of reactive group monomers (not illustrating) that can first adulterate equably in liquid crystal layer 1300, these reactive group monomers can form liquid crystal after processing via polymerization stablize polymeric layer 1306 in the surface of image element array substrates 1100 and/or subtend substrate 1200.In the process of processing in polymerization, can apply electric field in liquid crystal layer 1300 via pixel electrode 1110 and common electrode 1210, so that the liquid crystal molecule of liquid crystal layer 1300 topples over according to produced electric field, utilize irradiation ultraviolet radiation, heating or other appropriate ways to make reactive group monomer polymerization stablize polymeric layer 1306 for liquid crystal simultaneously.Wherein, the mode of polymerization reaction base monomer is comply with the material behavior of used reactive group monomer and determine.Thus, near the dump angle of the liquid crystal molecule reactive group monomer after polymerization when remaining on reactive group monomer polymerization.Liquid crystal is stablized polymeric layer 1306 and is contributed to increase both alignment layers 1220 and the anchorage force of both alignment layers 1190 for the liquid crystal molecule of liquid crystal layer 1300, thus toppling direction that can stabilizing liquid crystal molecule, and promote the reaction speed of liquid crystal molecule.Whereby, on common electrode 1210, can not need to form any pattern but cover on subtend substrate 1200 comprehensively.So, liquid crystal indicator 1000 can have higher penetrance, and has faster reaction speed to improve ghost phenomena.
When liquid crystal, stablize polymeric layer 1306 and executing while being formed on both alignment layers 1220 and both alignment layers 1190 surperficial in alive situation, can be haply along the toppling direction of pixel electrode 1110 (further illustrating after a while) hint, form paradigmatic structure.Therefore, after putting on the electric field disappearance of liquid crystal layer 1300, both alignment layers 1220 is stablized polymeric layer 1306 with the liquid crystal in both alignment layers 1190 can retract predetermined orientation by liquid crystal molecule fast, and then assists the liquid crystal molecule of liquid crystal layer 1300 to carry out fast reaction next time.Thus, further shorten the reaction time of liquid crystal molecule, and further improved ghost phenomena.By liquid crystal, stablizing the help of polymeric layer 1306 can reach preferably orientation effect by lower cost, therefore can reduce the manufacturing cost of whole liquid crystal indicator 1000.
