Description

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 is placed in polarizing microscope by cholesterol type benzoate (Cholesteric benzoate), observe the cholesterol type benzoate and can present different colours (bluish violet and blueness) in even phase (Isotropic) and cholesterol phase (Cholesteric), even and the cholesterol change color phenomenon between mutually exists only in very little temperature range (approximately only having 1 ℃ of temperature range).In 1970 Christian eras, many scientists utilize the 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 mentioned in the literature is " fog phase ".Compared to the cube structure (cubic) of BP I and BP II, BP III is unformed (amorphous).At the polarized light microscopy Microscopic observation, BP III normally, without the fuzzy image of any structure, therefore is difficult to the polarized light microscopy Microscopic observation.
And the structure of BP I, BP II has been proved, the elementary cell that forms BP I, BP II is " two torsions are cylindric " (DTC:double twist cylinder), and such arrangement mode has minimum free energy.In addition, the arrangement of two torsion cylindrical tube in space is orthogonal, and such arrangement causes the lattice of defect (defect), and is considered to be entered by liquid crystal phase the pre-converted phenomenon (pre-transitional phenomena) of cholesterol phase.Therefore, indigo plant is classified as invalid phase (frustrated phases) mutually.Utilize the experimental research such as Bragg diffraction, Kossel diffraction chart, optical texture, crystal growth to find, 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, as nematic phase (nematic), smectic phase (smectic), even phase (isotropic), usually BP I, BP II can show the color graphics (J.A.C.S of many tabular (platelet texture) under polarizing microscope, 2008,130,6326Kikuchiet.al.), this is because lattice period causes due to Bragg reflection at visible wavelength range.
General liquid crystal has optics out-phase (optically anisotropic), but blue phase liquid crystal is but to have the tropisms (optically isotropic) such as optics.In other words, blue phase liquid crystal has very low or does not even have a birefringence (Birefringence).
Due to the lattice period of the blue phase liquid crystal function that is visible wavelength, therefore can produce selectivity " Bragg reflection " (selective Bragg reflection).This specific character makes blue phase liquid crystal can be used in the light valve (fast light modulators) of rapid answer.But, no matter still observation experimentally of prediction in theory, blue phase liquid crystal only appear at possess high-purity is arranged, in molecular material that height revolves optical activity, and the change color of its blue phase exists only in very little temperature range.Therefore, blue phase liquid crystal is only academicly coming into question usually, but does not come into one's own in practical application.
Nearly 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 is subject to again the attention of science and industrial community.For the needs on applying, blue phase liquid crystal must possess broad temperature application range is arranged, and therefore different technical developments 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 broad temperature range to produce.In addition, in 2002, the people such as Kikuchi added a small amount of high polymer monomer and light initiator in 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 ℃.
Although blue phase liquid crystal has the 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.
