Description

The manufacturing approach of liquid crystal display cells and liquid crystal display cells
Technical field
The present invention relates to the manufacturing approach and the liquid crystal display cells of liquid crystal display cells.
Background technology
At present, various liquid crystal display cells such as known TN (twisted nematic) type, STN (STN Super TN) type, VA (vertical orientated) type, IPS (face intra) type, OCB (optical compensation curved) type.
In these; In the VA type liquid crystal display cells; Known at orientation such as the thrust that narrow slit structure, wire are set on the substrate or on transparency electrode control works; Thereby the liquid crystal aligning direction in the time of will applying voltage is controlled on the different directions in the pixel; Thus, can realize the liquid crystal display cells (patent documentation 1) of MVA (multi-domain vertical alignment) mode at wide visual angle.The liquid crystal display cells of this MVA mode has the excellent advantage of viewing angle characteristic, but owing to there is orientation control works, therefore exists white brightness to reduce, show darker shortcoming.
In order to realize wide visual angle and high brightness, and VA type liquid crystal display cells that can high-speed response, the use polymkeric substance has been proposed, the method for the vergence direction the when tilt angle of regulation liquid crystal and voltage apply (patent documentation 2 and 3).The method of in these patent documentations, putting down in writing is to have between two substrates of the electrode that is processed into complicated shape; Clamping by contain can photopolymerization or the liquid-crystal composition of the monomer of thermal polymerization and liquid crystal constitute layer; Between above-mentioned electrode, apply voltage; Thereby under the state that liquid crystal tilts; Apply light or heat to this liquid-crystal composition layer; Make monomer polymerization form polymkeric substance, make the direction of orientation and the fixing technology of tilt angle of liquid crystal through this polymkeric substance.This technology can make the corresponding speed of light and shade accelerate and since the vergence direction of liquid crystal also can be controlled at through the shape of electrode multi-direction on, therefore also can realize wide visual angle, and then the problem of the brightness excellent technology that also can be solved.Yet; According to this technology; In order to control the orientation of liquid crystal; Need on substrate, form the electrode of complicated shape, it is complicated that the electrode manufacturing procedure becomes, and the manufacturing cost of liquid crystal display cells increases; In addition in the polymerization of monomer; The rayed or the high temperature that need the heavy exposure amount, therefore in the manufacture process of liquid crystal display cells, the problem that exists the electrical characteristics of element to suffer damage.
In view of this fact, in VA type liquid crystal display cells, need not to use the electrode of complicated shape, requirement can embody the liquid crystal display cells of patent documentation 2 and 3 advantageous effects.That is, require not use the electrode of complicated shape, can control direction of orientation, embody good liquid crystal aligning property and have wide visual angle and high brightness concurrently, also can not damage the liquid crystal display cells of electrical characteristics in addition through above-mentioned rayed through rayed.
On the other hand; In the liquid crystal display cells beyond the VA types such as TN type, STN type, IPS type, OCB type,, adopt the method for polishing usually in order in liquid crystal orientation film, to give the liquid crystal aligning ability; It is many that the process number that liquid crystal display cells is made becomes, and on manufacturing cost, has problems.
In order to omit the polishing operation of liquid crystal display cells in making, studied optical alignment method, but the research example of employing optical alignment method does not have basically in TN type etc., and several examples (for example patent documentation 4) are only arranged.In addition, according to the technology of present proposition, light orientation TN type liquid crystal display cells is not enough to the orientation limitations power of liquid crystal, as yet practicability not.
Therefore, in the liquid crystal display cells beyond the VA type, require not simple procedures, just can obtain to realize the manufacturing approach of the liquid crystal display cells of strong liquid crystal aligning control through polishing.
