A kind of positive dielectric anisotropy liquid crystal composition
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of liquid-crystal composition, refer in particular to one and can be used for manufacturing IPS mode liquid crystal and show
Device or the positive dielectric anisotropy liquid crystal composition of FFS mode liquid crystal display.
Background technology
Thin Film Transistor-LCD (TFT-LCD), is 21 century the most rising Display Technique
One of, all it is widely used in the field such as notebook computer, LCD TV.TFT-LCD is at twisted-nematic
The Active Matrix LCD At introducing thin film transistor switch on the basis of liquid crystal display (TN-LCD) and formed, gram
Take the shortcomings such as cross interference during passive matrix shows, quantity of information is few, writing speed is slow, substantially improved aobvious
Show quality, therefore obtain fast development.
The disadvantage of TFT-LCD is viewing angle problem, little including visual angle anisotropy and angular field of view.When making
User is when the direction leaving display floater normal is observed, and the contrast of liquid crystal display will be decreased obviously, depending on
It also occur that gray scale and the phenomenon of colour reversal when angle is big.Along with the increase of TFT-LCD product size, especially
Being the TFT-LCD extensive application in TV field, viewing angle problem becomes the most serious.Therefore, have and extensively regard
Plane conversion (In-Plane Swiching, IPS) the display pattern of wild angle feature is arisen at the historic moment.IPS shows mould
Formula has outstanding angle of visibility characteristic, dynamic definition and color rendition effect, is mainly used in scientific and technological content
The fields such as higher space flight, medical treatment, design.
IPS display pattern is that the pair of electrodes controlling liquid crystal molecule deflection is all installed on the same substrate, utilizes
The transverse electric field being applied between this pair of electrodes, to control the state of liquid crystal molecule, makes liquid crystal molecule parallel
Rotate in the plane of substrate, produce twist distortion.Hang down mutually in the polarizer of this pattern and the direction of analyzer
Directly, the direction of director is identical with polarizer direction.When no voltage is applied, liquid crystal molecule does not rotates, liquid
Crystal display is dark-state, demonstrates the black that comparison is pure;After applying voltage, liquid crystal molecule rotates, light
When by the liquid crystal layer of distortion modulated, electric field is different, and the transmitance of light is different.
Hyundai company develops fringe field switching (Fringe Field on the basis of IPS pattern
Switching, FFS) display pattern, by same plane between pixel electrode produce fringe field, make electrode
Between and electrode directly over aligned liquid-crystal molecule can (being parallel to substrate) in-plane produce rotate turn
Change, thus while increasing visual angle, improve the light transmission efficiency of liquid crystal layer.FFS mode by IPS pattern not
Transparent metal electrode changes transparent ITO electrode into increase light transmittance, positive and negative electrode is passed through insulating barrier simultaneously
Separating heavy stack arrangement, is greatly reduced electrode width and spacing.When applying voltage, at electric field action bottom electrode
Between and electrode on liquid crystal molecule all in the face being parallel to panel rotate, it is ensured that light is all worn in all directions
Cross the short axle of liquid crystal molecule, do not have directional dependence to expand visual angle.FFS technology is before realizing wide viewing angle
Put, be simultaneously achieved the good characteristics such as high light transmission efficiency, high-contrast, high brightness, low aberration.
Liquid crystal material is as one of important photoelectron material of liquid crystal display, to the property improving liquid crystal display
Can play an important role.As display liquid crystal material must be requested that have wider nematic temperature range,
Higher stability, applicable rotary viscosity and the quick response to electric field.But up to the present,
Also do not find any single liquid-crystal compounds can reach above-mentioned performance requirement, it is necessary to by plurality of liquid crystals
Compound is combined into liquid-crystal composition, can meet the performance requirement of liquid crystal display material.
Owing to IPS display pattern, FFS display pattern show the displaying principle of pattern, liquid crystal cell with conventional TN
Structure is the most different, so, the requirement to liquid crystal material is also different from TN display mode liquid crystal material.In order to reach
To good display effect, the liquid crystal material for IPS display pattern and FFS display pattern must be fulfilled for
Lower requirement:
(1) high stability: include ultraviolet light stability, heat stability and chemical stability;
(2) optical anisotropy of appropriateness: less Δ n can obtain wider visual angle;
(3) low viscosity: viscosity is the lowest, response time is the least, and response speed is the fastest;
(4) bigger dielectric anisotropy: Δ ε is the biggest for dielectric anisotropy, and the threshold voltage of liquid crystal is the least,
But the ion in liquid crystal material the most easily separates out, become free ion and cause resistivity to reduce;
(5) wide temperature range: preferably storage temperature range is-40 DEG C~100 DEG C, typically has special applications
Such as car-mounted display, this temperature may widen-40 DEG C~110 DEG C.
Show and FFS mode shows to realize IPS pattern, and obtain stable, there is broad view
Liquid-crystal composition, needs the systematicness of active force and the Liquid Crystal Molecules Alignment designing between liquid crystal molecule, therefore,
The liquid crystal material continually developing new excellent performance has great importance.
