Description

The blue phase liquid crystal display panel
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of display panels, and relate in particular to a kind of blue phase liquid crystal display panel (blue phase liquid crystal display panel).
Background technology
1888 Christian eras; Friedrich Reinitzer places polarizing microscope with cholesterol type benzoate (Cholesteric benzoate); Observe the cholesterol type benzoate even phase (Isotropic) and cholesterol mutually (Cholesteric) can demonstrate different colours (bluish violet and blueness), even and the cholesterol change color phenomenon between mutually exists only in very little temperature range (having only 1 ℃ of temperature range approximately).In 1970 Christian eras, many scientists utilize methods such as analysis by measure, high resolving power differential scanning calorie meter, confirm that aforementioned phenomenon is a kind of new thermodynamically stable phase, and are called blue phase.
Indigo plant has three kinds of out of phase existence mutually, and these three kinds are expressed as BP I, BP II, BP III mutually, and the temperature that BPIII exists be three the highest in mutually, the BP III that in document, mentions is " fog phase ".Compared to the cube structure (cubic) of BP I and BP II, BP III is unformed (amorphous).Under polarizing microscope, observe, BP III does not normally have the fuzzy image of any structure, therefore is difficult to observe under the polarizing microscope.
And the structure of BP I, BP II has been proved, and the elementary cell that constitutes BP I, BP II is " two reverse cylindric " (DTC:double twist cylinder), and such arrangement mode has minimum free energy.In addition, two to reverse the arrangement of cylindrical tube in the space be orthogonal, and such arrangement causes the lattice of defective (defect), and be considered to got into by liquid crystal phase the pre-converted phenomenon (pre-transitional phenomena) of cholesterol phase.Therefore, the blue invalid phase (frustrated phases) that classified as.Utilize experimental discovering such as Bragg diffraction, Kossel diffraction chart, optical texture, crystal growth; BP II is simple cubic structure (SC:simple cubic) (Mol.Cryst.Liq.Cryst.; Vol.465; Pp.283-288,2007), BP I is body-centered cubic structure (BCC:body-centered cubic).Be different from other liquid crystal phase; Like nematic phase (nematic), smectic phase (smectic), even phase (isotropic); Usually BP I, BP II can show color graphics (J.A.C.S, 2008,130 of many tabular (platelet texture) under polarizing microscope; 6326Kikuchiet.al.), this is because lattice period causes due to the Bragg reflection at visible wavelength range.
General liquid crystal has optics out-phase property (optically anisotropic), but blue phase liquid crystal but is to have tropisms (optically isotropic) such as optics.In other words, blue phase liquid crystal has very low or does not even have birefringence (Birefringence).
Because the lattice period of blue phase liquid crystal is the function of visible wavelength, so can produce selectivity " Bragg reflection " (selective Bragg reflection).This specific character makes blue phase liquid crystal can be used in the light valve of rapid answer (fast light modulators).But, no matter in theory still experimentally observation of prediction, blue phase liquid crystal only appear at possess high-purity is arranged, in the molecular material that height revolves optical activity, and the change color of its blue phase exists only in the very little temperature range.Therefore, blue phase liquid crystal is only academicly coming into question usually, but in practical application, does not come into one's own.
Over past ten years, for the display quality that makes display panels faces the display quality of driving in cathode-ray tube (CRT), the blue phase liquid crystal with rapid answer characteristic receives the attention of science and industrial community again.For the needs on using, blue phase liquid crystal must possess has broad temperature application range, so the different techniques development is suggested in succession.For example, utilize the characteristic (macromolecule reticulate texture) of stabilizing polymer can be present in the blue phase (Nature materials, 2002,1,64) in the broad temperature range to produce.In addition, in 2002, people such as Kikuchi added a spot of high polymer monomer and light initiator in the blue phase liquid crystal, and irradiation produces as the stable blue phase of gel structure in blue phase temperature range, successful produced the blue phase that temperature range is about 60 ℃.
Though blue phase liquid crystal has advantages such as tropism such as rapid answer time and optics, the shortcoming of driving voltage higher (can reach 55 volts) is arranged.With regard to the angle of volume production, the high driving voltage of blue phase liquid crystal is one of problem of needing badly solution.
