Description

A kind of method for preparing the liquid crystal vertical-tropism film
Technical field
The invention belongs to the photoelectron material technical field, relate to the preparation of liquid crystal device alignment films, specifically a kind of method for preparing the liquid crystal vertical-tropism film.
Background technology
LCD enjoys people's favor in field of information display with its flat board, portable, low-power consumption, electromagnetic-radiation-free, to the undamaged characteristics of eyesight.The drawbacks limit that yet the visual angle is narrow partially, response speed is slow the application of LCD.Though the ferroelectric liquid crystals response speed is far longer than nematic liquid crystal, also do not find a kind of stable orientations method that can practicability so far.Show that at twisted nematic liquid crystal (TN-LCD), supertwist nematic liquid crystal show that (STN-LCD), thin film transistor (TFT) twisted nematic liquid crystal show that (TFT-TN-LCD), homeotropic alignment liquid crystal show in (VA-LCD) pattern, the response speed of VA-LCD is the fastest, contrast is also very high, is applied.For overcoming the problem of narrow viewing angle, multidomain homeotropic alignment (MVA) display mode is proposed again in recent years, not only response speed is fast, and has solved the narrow partially shortcoming of visual angle of liquid crystal display, so the research of liquid crystal homeotropic alignment becomes current focus.
The preparation method of vertical alignment layer comprises inclination evaporation SiO method, LB embrane method, macromolecule spin-coating method etc.The non-friction orientation process of the general employing of the preparation process of vertical alignment layer, oriented material mostly is polyimide or the polyamic acid that has alkyl chain, and preparation process needs high-temperature heat treatment to desolvate and imidization curing to remove.The heat treatment process of high temperature has limited the selection of substrate, and can cause certain injury for established driving circuit on the substrate.
The various countries researchist just is being devoted to the exploratory development of light control orientation material at present.Photopolymerisable characteristics are that the required energy of activation of polyreaction is low, are easy to cold polymerization.People have proposed the thought of the photo orientated arrangement liquid crystal of polymeric membrane for this reason.Traditional photo orientated method is that the molecule that contains photosensitive group is inserted in the macromolecular main chain as side chain, makes polymkeric substance generation directional light crosslinked under the polarized ultraviolet irradiation, and polymer surfaces produces the tension force anisotropy, thereby induces liquid crystal aligning.For the selection of prepolymer, people have carried out deep discussion to cinnamic acid, cumarin, azo quasi-molecule, light-sensitive polyamic acid etc.But these material molecules are all very big, and ubiquity steric hindrance height, low, the unfavorable problem of orientation effect of photo-crosslinking efficient.The Chinese patent communique discloses " a kind of both-end has the photo orientated membrane preparation method of carbon carbon double bond monomer " (CN1367404A) and the patented claim of " a kind of photo orientated membrane preparation method of both-end photosensitive monomer " (CN 1367403A, open day on September 4th, 2002).These two patented claims, used small molecule monomer two ends all have the photosensitivity group, provide approach for solving the photo-crosslinking efficiency.
But photo orientated method usually is used for preparing the alignment films that is arranged in parallel of liquid crystal molecule, seldom is used for preparing the liquid crystal vertical-tropism film.
Summary of the invention
The present invention carries out photopolymerization with fluorine-containing photosensitive monomer molecule, and purpose provides a kind of method for preparing the liquid crystal vertical-tropism film.
The present invention adopts the two cinnamate monomer membrane materials of UV-irradiation hexafluoro bisphenol-a, makes the monomer molecule two ends that [2+2] cycloaddition reaction take place under light action, the alignment films that generation can induce liquid crystal vertical-tropism to arrange.
In order to obtain vertical orientated liquid crystal orientation film, the present invention has selected the molecule two ends to have the cinnamic acid structure, has contained the monomer of the two cinnamates of hexafluoro bisphenol-a of trifluoromethyl, and its molecular structural formula is:
Figure C20041001063800041
At normal temperatures the two cinnamates of hexafluoro bisphenol-a are dissolved in the tetrahydrofuran solvent wiring solution-forming.Solution is spun on film forming on the substrate, uses the film on the UV-irradiation substrate immediately, make the monomer molecule both-end that [2+2] cycloaddition polyreaction take place, the gained polymeric membrane can directly be induced the liquid crystal molecule homeotropic alignment.
In order more to be expressly understood the present invention in detail, process of the present invention is described in detail below.
One, the two cinnamate monomers of hexafluoro bisphenol-a is synthetic
Synthetic chemical reaction process is as follows:
Figure C20041001063800042
