Liquid-crystal composition and application thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of liquid-crystal composition, particularly to a kind of have suitable optical anisotropy and dielectric respectively to
Viscosity, faster response speed different in nature, less and the liquid-crystal composition of good low temperature storage stability and at liquid crystal display
Application in device.
Background technology
From the point of view of liquid crystal display cells, be divided into PC(phase change, phase transformation according to the display pattern of liquid crystal), TN
(twist nematic, twisted-nematic), STN (super twisted nematic, super twisted nematic), ECB
(electrically controlled birefringence, electrically conerolled birefringence), OCB(optically compensated
Bend, optical compensation curved), IPS(in-plane switching, coplanar transformation), VA(vertical alignment, hang down
Straight orientation) etc. type.Liquid crystal display cells is divided into according to the type of light source and utilizes the reflection-type of nature light, utilizes passing through of backlight
Type and utilize nature light and the semi-transmission type of two kinds of light sources of backlight.
Known in above-mentioned operating mode, ecb mode, IPS pattern, VA mode equations utilize the vertical orientation of liquid crystal molecule
Property operating mode, it is narrow and small that especially IPS pattern and VA pattern can improve the display such as TN pattern, STN mode pattern visual angle
Shortcoming.
Liquid crystal material needs have the highest dielectric anisotropic, optics anisotropic and good low temperature intersolubility
And heat stability.Additionally, liquid crystal material also should have low viscosity and short response time, low threshold voltage and high-contrast.Root
The each to performance indications of compositions is further illustrated according to commercially available liquid crystal display cells.Nematic temperature range and element
Operating temperature range is associated.Nematic ceiling temperature is preferably more than or equal to 70 DEG C, and nematic lower limit temperature
Preferably less than equal to-10 DEG C.The viscosity of compositions is associated with the response time of element.Dynamic in order to show in the component
Drawing, the preferably response time of element is short.Therefore, the preferably viscosity of compositions is little, and group when preferably temperature is low
The viscosity of compound is little.
The optical anisotropy of compositions is associated with the contrast of element.In order to make the contrast ratio of liquid crystal display cells
Maximize, can (Δ n) be set as with the product value (Δ n*d) of the thickness (d) of liquid crystal layer by the optical anisotropy of liquid-crystal composition
The mode of fixed value is designed.Suitable product value depends on the kind of operating mode.As TN pattern element appropriate value about
It it is 0.45 μm.During this situation, for the element that thickness of liquid crystal layer is less, the combination that preferably optical anisotropy is big
Thing.
The big dielectric anisotropy of compositions contributes to making element to have a low critical voltage, little power consumption and big
Contrast.Therefore, the biggest dielectric anisotropy.The resistivity of compositions contributes to greatly making element have big electricity
Pressure conservation rate and big contrast.Therefore, preferably it is not only at room temperature in the starting stage and the most also has
The compositions of bigger resistivity.Preferably long-time use after the most at room temperature and also the most also there is bigger electricity
The compositions of resistance rate.Compositions is relevant to the stability of ultraviolet and heat and the life-span of liquid crystal display cells.Aforementioned stable is high
Time, the life-span of this element is long.This kind of characteristic is for liquid crystal projection apparatus, for the liquid crystal display cells used in LCD TV etc.
It is preferable.
Single liquid-crystal compounds is generally difficult to play its characteristic, generally it is mixed with other plurality of liquid crystals compounds and joins
Make compositions.In available liquid crystal compositions, it is possible to obtain preferably characteristic, but this species compound optical anisotropy
Big not, dielectric anisotropy is big not, helps little to being mixed into compositions big for Δ n and Δ ε, thus is unfavorable for being used in little
In the product that box is thick, directly result in response speed fast not, the liquid crystal combination as disclosed in CN101796162A, CN1475547A
Thing, has disadvantages mentioned above in varying degrees.
Accordingly, it would be desirable to a kind of liquid-crystal composition, it is low that it has nematic ceiling temperature lower limit temperature high, nematic
(i.e. transition temperature range width);Low viscosity;Big optical anisotropy;Big dielectric anisotropy;Good ultraviolet
Stability;At least one characteristic in the characteristics such as good low temperature storage stability.Other objects of the present invention are to provide one
Liquid crystal display cells, it is to have that optical anisotropy is big, dielectric anisotropy big, to characteristics such as the stability of ultraviolet are high
Compositions, and make that liquid crystal display cells response time is short, irrigation crystal speed is fast, voltage retention is big, contrast is big, the life-span is long
Etc. characteristic.
