Description
Technical field
The present invention is about a kind of liquid crystal display element and its manufacturing method.
Background technology
Though LCD TV is widely available, with the higher image quality that enlargement is brought, the display object being displaced on screen
Movement speed it is faster than small liquid crystal television, it is therefore desirable to accelerate the response speed of liquid crystal, promote video image quality.
The full-color display mode of field sequence for not needing colour filter is characterized in that using the sequence point according to " red → green → blue "
Bright backlight.In common CRT, liquid crystal display, the frame time (frame time) is 16.7ms, and sequence on the scene is full-color
In display mode, then the frame time is 5.6ms, it is desirable that high-speed response.
As the index for indicating high-speed response, the sum of τ d and τ r can be enumerated.τ d are the decline response time of liquid crystal, and τ r are
The rising response time of liquid crystal.In order to meet the high-speed response in the full-color display mode of a sequence, it is expected that the sum of τ d and τ r are less than
1.5ms。
It is referred to as the liquid crystal material of nematic liquid crystal on the market at present, is generally used in TV, monitor, mobile electricity
The flat-panel monitors such as words, smart mobile phone, tablet terminal.However, the response speed due to nematic liquid crystal is slow, about more than ten milliseconds extremely
Several milliseconds, so it is expected to improve.Response speed due to can by liquid crystal the prodigious influence of rotational viscosity γ 1 and elastic constant,
Therefore have studied the exploitation by compounds, the optimization of composition improves, but what is improved makes slow progress.In contrast, making
The high-speed response of hundreds of microseconds can be achieved with the ferroelectric liquid crystal (FLC) of smectic liquid crystal.However, due to being only bright and dark two kinds of shapes
State uses the methods of region gradual change so being not easy to realize that the intervening fade needed for full-color display is shown.
In FLC, stabilizing polymer V-arrangement ferroelectric liquid crystals (PSV-FLC) element being made of the mixture of FLC and monomer is in iron
It is formed with fine polymer network in electrical liquid crystal, other than as the high-speed response of FLC specialities, can also realize centre
Gradual change is shown, in addition, impact resistance is also promoted (patent document 1) than previous FLC.
In addition, in nematic liquid crystal and high molecular composite material, if the polymerizable compound of 70 mass % or more is added
It is added on nematic liquid crystal medium, although the high-speed response that the response time is tens of microseconds then can be obtained, driving voltage can be more than
About 80V, and it is impracticable, and the birefringence of actual effect can reduce by 1 digit or more than the liquid crystal birefringence rate used, therefore so that
The transmissivity of element declines.On the other hand, propose there are following PS (polymer-stabilised:It is polymer-stabilized) or
PSA(polymer-sustained alignment:Macromolecule maintains to be orientated) display:By 0.3 mass % less than 1
1 kind or more of the polymerizable compound of quality % makes an addition to liquid crystal media, applies or do not apply voltage, by UV photopolymerization,
Raised structures object fine obtained from polymerization or crosslinking is formed on glass substrate interface, mainly induces pre-tilt
(pretilt) (patent document 2~6).The displays such as PS or PSA are mainly configured under vertical alignment mode using interaction fine
The fish bone well pattern electrode of the linear slit of width and the wire electrode of fine width, formation are divided into 4 multiple domain (multi-
Domain), high visual field angling is realized.If at this point, applying voltage, liquid crystal can be towards linear slit direction tilted alignment.If herein
Polymerizable compound is set to polymerize under state of orientation, then macromolecule membrane can be formed in substrate interface, the liquid crystal near substrate interface
Orientation can stabilize.At this point, tilted alignment orientation can be induced as pre-tilt, divide by using the orientation that pattern electrode is formed
It cuts, without the orientation process process (non-patent literature 1) of complicated vertical alignment layer.In addition, it was recently reported that the response time can
Improve from 10 milliseconds to several milliseconds.About other macromolecular orientation stabilization technologies, using there is the polymerism made in liquid crystal
The method for closing object reaction.State of orientation when application voltage is set to stabilize to obtain required electro-optic properties by macromolecule,
And it can show the characteristic (patent document 7~14) being only unable to get with liquid crystal simple substance.
However, even if in these elements, under the viewpoint of high-speed response, also there is the space of improvement.Especially with respect to liquid
The high-speed response of the rate of climb of crystal device, actual use be liquid-crystal composition low viscosity, high-k
Change, assigns pre-tilt angle or the various methods such as the improvement of driving methods such as (overdrive) method of overdriving at low spring constant,
But about decrease speed, present situation be other than the low viscosity of liquid-crystal composition, it is not yet found that effect method, and it is expected change
It is kind.

In the liquid crystal display element of the present invention, the liquid crystal between being held at least one 2 transparent substrate with electrode
Contain polymer or copolymer in composition, the content of the polymer or copolymer is the liquid-crystal composition and the polymer or altogether
0.5 mass % of total quality of polymers forms polymer network less than 40 mass %, the polymer or copolymer, should
Polymer network has the refractive anisotrop of uniaxiality or easy axis of orientation, and has different state of orientation of more than two kinds.
The liquid crystal display element of the present invention preferably has the orientation to make liquid-crystal composition be orientated on the transparent substrate of at least one party
Film.Apply voltage to being set to the alignment films of substrate and being set to the electrode of substrate, can control the orientation of liquid crystal molecule.Polymerization
Object network or polymer adhesive have the refractive anisotrop of uniaxiality or are easily orientated axis direction, preferred polymers network or
The optical axis direction of polymer adhesive is easily orientated the easy orientation axis direction of axis direction and low molecular weight liquid crystal as the same direction.With regard to this
Point for, with without uniaxiality refractive anisotrop or easily be orientated axis direction light scattering type polymer network liquid crystal,
Polymer dispersion type liquid crystal is different.
Further, the easy easy axis of orientation side for being orientated axis direction and polymer network or polymer adhesive of preferred orientation film
To identical.By having polarizer, phase difference film etc., shown using this state of orientation.As liquid crystal display element, can answer
For operating modes such as TN, STN, ECB, VA, VA-TN, IPS, FFS, π unit, OCB, cholesteryl liquid crystals.Wherein, particularly preferably
For VA, IPS, FFS, VA-TN, TN, ECB.It should be noted that in liquid crystal display element of the invention, with regard to containing in liquid-crystal composition
For the aspect for having polymer or copolymer, with the PSA (Polymer with polymer or copolymer in alignment films
Sustained Alignment, macromolecule maintain to be orientated) type liquid crystal display element difference.
The content of polymer or copolymer in liquid-crystal composition is the liquid-crystal composition and the polymer or copolymer

0.9 mass % or more, as upper limit value, preferably smaller than 30 mass %, preferably smaller than 20 mass %.
In PSA type liquid crystal display element, a plurality of slit of 3~5 μm of width is arranged in electrode makes liquid crystal towards slit direction
Thus tilted alignment omits orientation process to replace friction orientation to handle.In volume production technical aspect, if applying some tens of volts
Voltage, and irradiate ultraviolet light simultaneously, then the orientation of liquid crystal can be to obtain pre-tilt angle (relative to inclining for substrate normal in substrate interface
Oblique angle) mode it is polymer-stabilized, form the film of polymer.Pre-tilt angle can be lured because of the effect of the macromolecule membrane
Hair, using this phenomenon, and can be used in PSVA (polymer-stabilized vertical alignment, polymer stabilizing
Vertical orientation) LCD or PSALCD manufacture.In addition, in order to promote angle of visibility, and use the pattern electricity for being designed as to be formed multiple domain
Pre-dumping angular direction in one pixel is divided into multiple by pole.When using with negative dielectric anisotropic liquid crystal when, if with from
Voltage more than saturation voltage is applied to by the mode that the vertical orientation of liquid crystal is converted to curved orientation (bend alignment)
Unit simultaneously irradiates ultraviolet light, then when the micro monomer made an addition in liquid crystal polymerize on vertical alignment layer, can form alignment films,
The alignment films make to occur polymer-stabilized as flexural deformation end and the orientation of liquid crystal that is slightly tilted and induce pre-tilt angle.By
This, if terminating irradiation ultraviolet light, interrupting application voltage, (pre-tilt) vertical orientation that can be slightly tilted.If however, will
The method is applied to that polymer network etc. can be integrally formed in unit and the liquid crystal display element that improves the relaxation time of response, then
Due to the voltage for some tens of volts for applying saturation voltage or more, ultraviolet light irradiation is carried out, polymer network can make liquid crystal exist
Stabilizing polymer under parallel-oriented state.In this way, due to can be formed in such a way that liquid crystal molecule is held in parallel-oriented state
The refraction ansiotropy of polymer network or easy axis of orientation, therefore vertical orientation can be unable to get.
For the LCD of vertical orientating type, in order to make the well azimuth of tilted alignment consistently court by applying voltage
Certain orientation, by assigning the pre-tilt angle relative to unit normal direction within 2 degree, come when seeking to improve transmissivity, response
Between equal electro-optic properties.However, in order to form the polymer network being slightly tilted in a manner of inducing pre-tilt angle, it is believed that apply
The voltage of the threshold voltage of a little higher than liquid crystal makes liquid crystal be formed in the state of tilted alignment within 2 degree.However, in PVA
(Patterned vertical alignment pattern vertical orientation) etc. makes tilted alignment direction fix by electrode shape
In consistent liquid crystal display element, if the refraction ansiotropy for applying the low-voltage of near threshold voltage, forming polymer network
Or easy axis of orientation, then it can be not fixed because of the tilted alignment orientation of liquid crystal, and transmissivity is declined.Its reason is:If applying
The voltage of near threshold voltage, then simply because curved orientation is slightly distorted into, one end of the alignment films side of flexural deformation is substantially hung down
Directly, the influence of vertical alignment layer is big, therefore the liquid crystal near substrate interface can become vertical orientation, therefore attached in substrate interface
Tilted alignment orientation can not closely be provided, towards certain orientation, to become unstable.On the other hand, if applying the full of electro-optic properties
With high voltage more than voltage, then the liquid crystal near substrate interface can become inclined state of orientation, and electric-field strength, therefore, by scheming
The influence of field distribution caused by pattern electrode can become larger, and tilted alignment orientation becomes certain orientation, can help to promote transmissivity.
However, since parallel-oriented polymer network can be formed in unit entirety, vertically taken as described above, can be unable to get
To.
Type of the tilted alignment orientation due to largely depending on electrode pattern, such as shown in Figure 13
Fish-bone (Fishbone) type electrode, alternatively repeat fine line electrode configured with a plurality of 3~5 μm or so width and with line electricity
The linear slit of extremely same width, the tilted alignment orientation of liquid crystal is in the pattern electrode, and the liquid crystal on line electrode can be orientated
At parallel generally towards slit direction.Make towards the fixed orientation memory of slit direction therefore, it is necessary to make it have tilted alignment orientation
Refraction ansiotropy for polymer network or easy axis of orientation.In addition, working as axial symmetry vertical orientation (Axially Symmetric
Vertical Alignment) pattern electrode in the case of, to be made of the counter electrode of point electrode and approximating square
Sub-pixel structure.Though central shaft perpendicular orientation applying voltage, using the point electrode of central shaft as starting point, liquid crystal is axial
(liquid crystal director) tilted alignment is at radial.When element seen from above, tilted alignment orientation is,
Liquid crystal is axially continuously orientated from central shaft with radial 360 degree.If by applying high voltage, in a part for polymer network
So that state of orientation is occurred polymer-stabilized, then can form one in such a way that the generation of radial tilted alignment orientation is stabilized
Partial polymer network.If making voltage be less than threshold voltage in ultraviolet light irradiation, to make liquid crystal revert to substantially vertical take
To, and continue to irradiate ultraviolet light in this case, then the folding of polymer network can be formed in a manner of as being approximately vertically oriented
Anisotropy or easy axis of orientation are penetrated, radial tilted alignment orientation can remain on polymer network, Neng Goutong in the form of track
When take into account apply voltage when tropism control with without apply voltage when vertical orientation.
That is, in the liquid crystal display element of PVA, coexisting two different makes the poly- of liquid crystal aligning in stable conditionization
Polymeric network, above two different polymer different to the influence power of liquid crystal aligning to the polymer network of each self-forming
Network is respectively:In order to keep the obtained state of orientation of the voltage of application threshold voltage or more polymer-stabilized, with liquid crystal
The consistent mode of state of orientation forms the case where refractive anisotrop of polymer network or easy axis of orientation;And in order to make to apply
Add, by with liquid crystal aligning state consistency in a manner of shape polymer-stabilized less than the obtained state of orientation of voltage of threshold voltage
At polymer network refractive anisotrop or easy axis of orientation the case where.If for example, only forming the liquid made less than threshold voltage
The brilliant stabilized polymer network of state of orientation, then when making liquid crystal aligning change by switching voltage, due to being carried out autohemagglutination
The state of orientation of the influence of polymeric network, liquid crystal can be different from the liquid crystal aligning state needed for liquid crystal display element script, therefore
The orientation after changing is orientated when the switch of PVA units to deform, and be unable to get desired state of orientation, and is imitated to electrooptics
Fruit impacts, the declines such as contrast, transmissivity.Therefore, apply threshold voltage or more by making to have coexisted in polymer network
The obtained state of orientation of voltage be less than the obtained state of orientation of voltage of threshold voltage both state of orientation with applying,
The orientation between two states may make to become easy, display characteristic becomes good.Therefore, in order to make the liquid crystal of threshold voltage or more
State of orientation is polymer-stabilized with the liquid crystal aligning state for being less than threshold voltage, is mixed according to both state of orientation
Mode is formed in polymer network, it is preferable that a part for the polymerizable compound contained in polymerizable liquid crystal compound is used for
Liquid crystal aligning in stable conditionization of threshold voltage or more, remaining polymerizable compound is set to be used in so that less than threshold voltage
The polymer network that the mode of liquid crystal aligning in stable conditionization is formed.If after the voltage for applying threshold voltage or more, in ultraviolet light
Apply the voltage less than threshold voltage in polymerization, though the transformation of liquid crystal aligning can then occur, when changing herein sometimes
It is orientated defect, if this is orientated defect by polymer-stabilized, is less than the homogeneity meeting of the liquid crystal aligning state of threshold voltage
It is impaired, become the decrease reason of contrast, transmissivity, it is not preferable.Voltage especially more than threshold voltage is saturation electricity
When pressing above, if making it become less than the voltage of threshold voltage during irradiating ultraviolet light, causes liquid crystal aligning to change, then can
A large amount of orientation defects occur.Therefore, it is necessary to by applying saturation voltage voltage below, to be orientated when inhibiting orientation transition
Defect (to wrong (disclination)), but simultaneously as above-mentioned, since the inclination of the liquid crystal of substrate interface dies down, well azimuth side
To becoming unstable, it is not preferable.In order to inhibit the orientation defect occurred by the orientation transition in polymerizable ultraviolet, apply from
Voltage drop more than threshold voltage in polymerizable ultraviolet at least applies liquid down to the medium voltage of threshold voltage voltage below
Brilliant the time more than response time, the time that the formation of polymer network will not be preferably impacted, as long as that can press down
The time for being orientated defect occurs for system, as long as the time that orientation defect will not be made polymer-stabilized, depends on liquid
The reactivity of polymerizable compound in crystalline substance, within preferably at least 5 seconds.In addition, medium voltage is preferably at least in threshold voltage
Above and in saturation voltage hereinafter, being middle gray voltage.The preferably rectangular wave of waveform, preferably voltage according to threshold voltage with
On voltage, medium voltage, threshold voltage voltage below the stage shape waveform that is lower of sequential stages ground.In addition, intermediate
Voltage is alternatively the voltage drop that makes voltage continuously more than threshold voltage down to the oblique wave (ramp of threshold voltage voltage below
wave).Further, in order to make orientation defect not remained by after polymer-stabilized to apply the method other than medium voltage,
Midway can be irradiated in ultraviolet light, cut off the voltage of threshold voltage or more, irradiated with ultraviolet light is interrupted with applying voltage synchronous, again
Applying liquid crystal aligning can be as such threshold voltage voltage below be approximately vertically oriented, with voltage synchronous again at this moment
Irradiate ultraviolet light.That is, when continuously irradiating ultraviolet light, apply medium voltage when the liquid crystal aligning transformation in irradiation
?.And when discontinuously irradiating ultraviolet light, then ultraviolet light irradiation is being interrupted in a flash when liquid crystal aligning changes, and turning
Ultraviolet light is irradiated again at the time of becoming end.
Further, there is the polymeric web for the stabilized effect of state of orientation for respectively keeping both different due to that can become
The state that network is mixed, therefore, forming liquid crystal aligning state of element when without voltage is applied after polymer network can be by
To the influence of the polymer network of two kinds of different orientation states of desired holding, the equilibrium of the influence power of each polymer network can determine
Liquid crystal aligning state when without application voltage.For example, in the liquid crystal display element of vertical alignment mode, if enhancing makes to be less than threshold
The influence power of the polymer network of liquid crystal aligning in stable conditionization of threshold voltage, then liquid crystal display element can show needed for script
Vertical orientation improves the contrast of liquid crystal display, thus preferably.On the contrary, if the liquid crystal aligning of threshold voltage or more is made to stablize
The influence power of the polymer network of change is too strong, and there will be the tendencies that the increase of the pre-tilt angle of liquid crystal, contrast decline.In order to improve liquid
Transmissivity, the contrast of crystal display element are promoted and show quality, make the polymer of two different liquid crystal aligning in stable conditionization
The balanced adjustment of the respective influence power of network is important, such as in PVA units, if according to the liquid crystal for making threshold voltage or more
Polymer network its influence power that the stabilized mode of state of orientation acts on is too strong, black although then maximum transmission rate can be promoted
Level can increase, and contrast is caused to decline.If in addition, in the way of making liquid crystal aligning in stable conditionization less than threshold voltage
Its influence power of the polymer network of effect is too strong, though good black level then can be obtained, maximum transmission rate can be caused to decline,
Contrast reduces, not preferably.
If apply curved orientation deformation etc. liquid crystal can inclined voltage, so that the orientation of the tilted alignment of liquid crystal is fixed, then most
Big transmissivity can be promoted, therefore, if first according to make tilted alignment orientation as fixed mode, so that make threshold voltage with
On liquid crystal aligning in stable conditionization and formed polymer network influence it is minimum, then ultraviolet light irradiate midway apply be less than
The voltage of threshold voltage forms polymer network, so as to substantially perpendicular orientation in stable conditionization of good black level can be obtained,
Good black level can then be become, the orientation of tilted alignment, which can become, to be fixed, and maximum transmission rate can be got higher, and therefore, height can be obtained
Contrast, display quality is promoted, to preferably.At this point, in order to make according to make tilted alignment orientation become fixed mode
The influence power of the polymer network of formation is minimum, preferably applies the voltage of threshold voltage or more to form polymer network, and
And voltage application time is that tilted alignment is made by the completely polymer-stabilized time, can not to apply in ultraviolet light irradiation
When threshold voltage voltage below, continue to irradiate ultraviolet light in the way of it can be approximately vertically oriented.
[manufacturing method of liquid crystal display element and the effect of polymer network]
The manufacturing method of the liquid crystal display element of the present invention, for the method containing following processes:To being held at least one
Polymerizable liquid crystal compound between 2 transparent substrates with electrode, apply the threshold voltage of the polymerizable liquid crystal compound with
On voltage and irradiate ultraviolet light simultaneously, carry out polymerization phase separation process;And then make in the state of irradiating ultraviolet light
Voltage is less than threshold voltage, and further irradiates the process of ultraviolet light.It is following method as a result,:It is formed respectively by threshold value
The state of orientation of liquid crystal more than voltage with less than threshold voltage liquid crystal the stabilized polymer network of state of orientation, make by
The polymer network of two kinds of different liquid crystal aligning in stable conditionization is formed with being mixed.In addition, when being to contain pattern electrode list
When the vertical alignment mode liquid crystal display element of member etc., the electricity preferably more than the threshold voltage for applying polymerizable liquid crystal compound
It presses and irradiates simultaneously in the process that ultraviolet light carries out polymerization phase separation, it is preferable that under curved orientation deformation, polymerizable liquid crystal group
The liquid crystal molecule closed in object is obliquely taken relative to transparent substrate plane with 0 degree to 30 degree of range near transparent substrate plane
To, and so that aforesaid voltage is less than in threshold voltage and the further process of irradiation ultraviolet light in the state of irradiating ultraviolet light, greatly
Cause vertical orientation, near transparent substrate plane, foregoing liquid crystal molecule relative to transparent substrate plane tilt 80 degree to 90 degree and
It is orientated.It is pair of liquid crystal with the state of 0 degree to 30 degree of range tilted alignment relative to transparent substrate plane about liquid crystal molecule
Increased state is presented because applying voltage in refractive index, double if the state of orientation of liquid crystal is 0 degree relative to transparent substrate plane
Refractive index can be maximum, is preferred, even if be tilt 30 degree relative to base plan and be orientated, it is also preferred that.It is especially mono- in PVA
In member, since well azimuth can be made to be fixation, thus preferably.No matter which kind of situation, all preferably according to application voltage is made caused by
LC tilt orientation becomes the mode of fixed-direction, and formation makes the stabilized polymer network of orientation.
At this point, in order to make the influence power pole for becoming the polymer network that fixed mode is formed according to tilted alignment orientation
It is small, apply the voltage of threshold voltage or more in ultraviolet light irradiation, so that liquid crystal is generated curved orientation deformation, but preferably make this state
Time be less than apply threshold voltage voltage below time, as long as when terminate apply threshold voltage more than voltage when for hair
The state of raw orientation transition.When the influence for making to become the polymer network that certain mode is formed according to tilted alignment orientation
When power is strong, pre-tilt angle can increase and be unable to get required black level, therefore, in order to avoid such case, if being shone in ultraviolet light
It hits and applies threshold voltage voltage below, then can be deformed from curved orientation to being approximately vertically oriented transformation, and it is purple to continue irradiation
Outside line preferably makes do not have remaining polymerizable compound in liquid crystal.It is preferred that making aforementioned electricity in the state of irradiating ultraviolet light
Pressure is less than threshold voltage and further irradiates in the process of ultraviolet light, and main polymer network is made to be formed.At this point, pre-tilt angle
Size can depend on applying the ratio of the time and the time for applying threshold voltage voltage below of the voltage of threshold voltage or more,
Apply threshold voltage more than time, be do not formed completely from liquid crystal in polymerize phase separation polymer network at the beginning of
Beginning state to polymerization is separated at first until at the time of a part is formed with polymer network, if preferably stopping applying electricity
Pressure then can be from curved orientation recoverable force at the state being approximately vertically oriented.Apply the time of the voltage of threshold voltage or more, it is excellent
It is selected as 1 second to 15 seconds.When changing to next process from this process, orientation transition preferably is occurring as the shape being approximately vertically oriented
Apply threshold voltage voltage below under state and irradiate ultraviolet light, be preferably formed entirely of polymer network, make it is not residual in liquid crystal
The polymerizable compound stayed.The state for applying threshold voltage voltage below is the state that is approximately vertically oriented, but is alternatively slightly
Curved orientation deformation, adjust voltage as needed required black level and tilted alignment orientation made to become and fix.It should be noted
It is that the time for applying threshold voltage voltage below can be until the formation of polymer network substantially terminates, when remaining on
It can not apply if amount of monomer in liquid crystal is to be micro and when will not impact electro-optic properties residual monomer polymerize
Threshold voltage voltage below.
Further, it is aforementioned application threshold voltage more than voltage and irradiate simultaneously ultraviolet light carry out polymerization phase separation work
Sequence and between then making in the state of irradiating ultraviolet light voltage be less than threshold voltage and irradiating the process of ultraviolet light, may also set up
Apply in the state of irradiating ultraviolet light at least more than threshold voltage and the process of saturation voltage middle gray voltage below.
Middle gray voltage is preferably smaller than the application voltage of initial process and more than threshold voltage.Middle gray voltage is in order to postpone
It deforms to the transformation being approximately vertically oriented and applies from curved orientation.The hair of defect is orientated due to can inhibit by carryover effects
It is raw, therefore preferably apply as needed.
The shape for tilting 80 degree to 90 degree in the form of pre-tilt angle relative to transparent substrate plane about liquid crystal molecule and being orientated
State, if liquid crystalline phase is orientated transparent substrate plane in 90 degree when without voltage is applied, birefringence can become minimum, right
It is useful and preferred in the high contrastization of liquid crystal display element, but taken to make it tilt towards fixed-direction when applying voltage
To, more preferably in the form of pre-tilt angle relative to base plan tilt 89.9 degree to 85 degree within.If relative to base plan
More than 80 degree, then since birefringence and light transmission capacity can increase, and so that the contrast of display declines, not preferably, relative to
For base plan at 85 degree or more, the black level of display can become good, high contrast can be obtained, therefore preferably.In addition,
IPS (In-plane switching, in-plane switching) display pattern, FFS (cut by Fringe Field Switching, fringing field
Change) pattern, TN (Twisted Nematic, twisted-nematic) pattern liquid crystal display element in, preferably also:It polymerize applying
Property liquid-crystal composition threshold voltage more than voltage and irradiate simultaneously ultraviolet light carry out polymerization phase separation process in, polymerism
Liquid crystal molecule in liquid-crystal composition depends on applying voltage and the range relative to transparent substrate plane at 0 degree to 90 degree tilts
And be orientated, so that aforesaid voltage is less than threshold voltage in the state of irradiating ultraviolet light and further irradiates the process of ultraviolet light
In, foregoing liquid crystal molecule depends on applying voltage and tilting 0 degree to 30 degree in the form of pre-tilt angle relative to transparent substrate plane
And it is orientated.
It tilts and is orientated in 0 degree to 90 degree of range relative to transparent substrate plane about liquid crystal molecule, according to making application
The state of orientation stabilized mode of the liquid crystal of voltage forms polymer network.But precondition is electric when stopping applying
When pressure, the liquid crystal aligning state corresponded to less than threshold voltage can be become.In IPS patterns, alignment films used in element
The angle of inclination of property influences very big, can contain the liquid crystal molecule of twisted-oriented in 1 degree to 2 degree or so of range, pre-tilt angle
Angle of inclination is preferably 0.5 degree to 3 degree, within preferably 0 degree to 2 degree.In the threshold voltage for applying polymerizable liquid crystal compound
It above voltage and irradiates simultaneously in the process that ultraviolet light carries out polymerization phase separation, preferably applies the state that can become torsional deformation
Voltage, and make in the state of irradiating ultraviolet light aforesaid voltage be less than threshold voltage and further irradiation ultraviolet light process
In, so that voltage is less than threshold voltage in the state that torsional deformation is not polymer-stabilized, with as parallel-oriented black
The condition of display makes its polymerization.In FFS mode, if applying the voltage of threshold voltage or more, in the state of orientation of liquid crystal, meeting
Injection (spray) orientation, curved orientation, twisted-oriented state, but main table have coexisted depending on the field distribution in element
Reveal injection to be orientated and twisted-oriented state.Inclination angle under the liquid crystal molecular orientation state of these states is at 0 degree to 45 degree
Range, it is preferably stabilized with same range if making orientation stabilize with polymer network.But precondition is
When stop apply voltage when, become corresponding to less than threshold voltage liquid crystal state of orientation, preferably from these states restore to
As parallel-oriented state, and irradiate ultraviolet light.And in TN patterns, preferably 45 degree of angles of inclination to 90 degree of ranges.
On the other hand, though applying the voltage less than threshold voltage, according to making the stabilized mode shape of the state of orientation of liquid crystal
At polymer network, but in the case of IPS patterns, FFS mode and TN patterns, due to friction orientation processing, in substrate interface
Pre-tilt angle be 1 degree~3 degree or so, it is therefore preferable that according to the liquid crystal aligning state for making to be applied with the voltage less than threshold voltage
Stabilized mode forms polymer network, and the angle of liquid crystal aligning can also tilt in the range, using optical alignment film etc. its
His method for orientation treatment, the angle of inclination for the liquid crystal molecule that pre-tilt angle contains twisted-oriented is preferably 0.5 degree to 3 degree, and 0 degree extremely
It is useful for obtaining wide angle of visibility within 2 degree, more preferably.
Furthermore it is preferred that apply voltage be AC wave shape, and with polymerizable liquid crystal compound show dielectric respectively to

Be limited to be transferred to by the driving circuit used in liquid crystal display element pixel signal will not decay in the range of frequency
, preferably at least frequency is in 2kHz or less.The dielectric constant shown about the polymerizable liquid crystal compound before irradiation ultraviolet light
Frequency dependence, the frequency meter shown with dielectric anisotropy is in 10kHz or less.About lower limiting value, work as driving element
When will produce flicker sometimes, lower limiting value is to make to flicker minimum frequency at this time, preferably at least in 20Hz or more.
The manufacturing method of the liquid crystal display element of the present invention has as described above according to two kinds of liquid crystal aligning states of holding
Mode form the feature of polymer network, in order to which the polymer network for keeping each liquid crystal aligning state and being formed is formed as poly-
The refractive anisotrop of polymeric network or easy axis of orientation with it is more than threshold voltage liquid crystal aligning direction or be less than threshold voltage
Liquid crystal aligning direction it is consistent.Generating as a result, makes the stabilized polymer network of liquid crystal aligning when application voltage be applied with nothing is made
The state that the stabilized polymer network of liquid crystal aligning when making alive coexists, liquid crystal aligning when can inhibit from without application voltage
The orientation that state occurs when making it be orientated deformation by applying voltage distorts, and can promote contrast etc. improves display characteristic.It is another
Aspect, only for the polymer network that is formed in the way of keeping without liquid crystal aligning state when applying voltage, when to applying
When liquid crystal aligning state transformation when making alive, the polymer that is formed in the way of the liquid crystal aligning for remaining less than threshold voltage
The influence power of network is strong, therefore, when changing to liquid crystal aligning state more than threshold voltage, will produce orientation distortion, becomes
The reason of making transmissivity decline.Keep liquid crystal aligning when application voltage stabilized by making a part for polymer network be formed
Polymer network can inhibit the distortion that the orientation occurred by switch changes, the change of the liquid crystal aligning needed for script can be obtained,
Promote transmissivity.It should be noted that according to when making application voltage and without each liquid crystal aligning in stable conditionization when applying voltage
The polymer network that mode is formed is characterized in that, polymer network is formed in the way of along two different liquid crystal alignings
Refractive anisotrop or easy axis of orientation.

In the example in the figures, in a pixel PX, 4 regions divided by pixel electrode PE and common electrode CE are by shape
At as opening portion, the transmissive portions for mainly helping display.In this instance, the initial orientation direction of liquid crystal molecule LM is and the 2nd
Direction substantially parallel direction Y.1st alignment films AL1 be configured at array substrate AR it is opposite with opposite substrate CT to face, big
It causes to extend in entire active region ACT.The coating pixel electrode PE of 1st alignment films AL1, are also configured at the 2nd interlayer dielectric 13
On.Such 1st alignment films AL1 is by showing that the material of horizontal alignment property is formed.It should be noted that array substrate AR is sometimes
It is further equipped with the 1st main common electrode and the 1st secondary common electrode of the part as common electrode.
Figure 12 is the electrode structure schematic diagram for the oblique electric field mode liquid crystal cell for being divided into 8 parts.In this way
1 pixel is divided into 8 parts, it can be achieved that further width visual field angling.
Next, illustrating the running of the liquid crystal display panel of above-mentioned composition.In the state of not applying voltage to liquid crystal layer,
Be not formed between pixel electrode PE and common electrode CE electric field without electric field when (when OFF), as shown in phantom in Figure 11, liquid
The liquid crystal molecule LM of crystal layer LQ is with the 1st orientation process direction PD1 and the 2nd alignment films AL2 of the 1st alignment films AL1 of its long axis direction
The mode of the 2nd orientation process direction PD2 be orientated.It is equivalent to initial orientation state when such OFF, liquid crystal molecule when OFF
The differently- oriented directivity of LM is equivalent to initial orientation direction.Strictly speaking, liquid crystal molecule LM is not only parallel to X-Y plane orientation, more
There is pre-tilt in the case of number.Therefore, the liquid crystal molecule when initial orientation directions of liquid crystal molecule LM in a strict sense are by OFF
The direction that differently- oriented directivity orthographic projection to the X-Y plane of LM is obtained.

Have in the state of potential difference (when ON), the transverse direction substantially parallel with substrate can be formed between pixel electrode PE and common electrode CE
Electric field (or oblique electric field).Liquid crystal molecule LM can be influenced by electric field and its long axis as shown by the solid line in the drawings like that with X-Y
The substantially parallel plane internal rotation of plane.
In the example shown in Figure 11, in the region between pixel electrode PE and main common electrode CAL, in lower half side region
Liquid crystal molecule LM be rotated in a clockwise direction relative to the 2nd direction Y, and be orientated to towards the lower left in figure, in addition, upper half
Liquid crystal molecule LM in side region is rotated in the counterclockwise direction relative to the 2nd direction Y, and is orientated to towards the upper left side in figure.
In region between pixel electrode PE and main common electrode CAR, the liquid crystal molecule LM in lower half side region is relative to the 2nd direction Y
It is rotated in the counterclockwise direction, and is orientated to towards the lower right in figure, the liquid crystal molecule LM in upper half side region is relative to the 2nd side
It is rotated in a clockwise direction, and is orientated to towards the upper right side in figure to Y.By this method, in each pixel PX, in pixel electrode PE
In the state of being formed with electric field between common electrode CE, the differently- oriented directivity of liquid crystal molecule LM is with the position Chong Die with pixel electrode PE
It sets as boundary and is divided into multiple directions, domain (domain) is formed in each differently- oriented directivity.That is, the shape in a pixel PX
At multiple domains.
In such ON, the linear polarization orthogonal with the 1st polarizing axis AX1 of the 1st polarizer PL1 can be incident to liquid crystal
Show that panel LPN, polarized condition can change when by liquid crystal layer LQ according to the state of orientation of liquid crystal molecule LM.Such
When ON, the 2nd polarizer PL2 (white display) is passed through by least part of the light of liquid crystal layer LQ.If according to such construction,
Since 4 domains can be formed in a pixel, optical compensation can be carried out to the angle of visibility in 4 directions, and realize wide angle of visibility
Change.Therefore, it can be achieved that reverse without gradual change and high-transmission rate display, is capable of providing the second best in quality liquid crystal display device of display.
In addition, by the way that the area of each opening portion in 4 regions divided by pixel electrode PE and common electrode CE is set in a pixel
To be roughly the same, the transmissivity in each region can be made roughly the same, the light across each opening portion carry out optical compensation each other and
Uniform display is realized in entire wide viewing angle.

T100) also roughly the same.However, T0 and pre-tilt angle after the application voltage of element number 6 are drastically compared to element number 1~5
Ground increases.This increases due to the parallel-oriented stabilisation ingredient of (a).Therefore, the dark of good black level is shown in order to obtain
The visual field, it is necessary to which being suitably adjusted to T0 will not increased polymerization voltage application time.In embodiment 10, when preferably polymerization being made to apply
Between within 10 seconds.If the voltage-transmission rate characteristic after the ultraviolet light irradiation of comparing unit number 1 to 5, can be obtained
0.1% good T0 below, but the T0 after the polymerization voltage application of element number 6 further increases, the influence of (a)
Power increases.As a result since pre-tilt angle is big so that the response time is also elongated, is not suitable for display element.That is, in vertical orientation
In the case of unit, polymerization voltage application time is adjusted in a manner of as the range (0.1% or less) for not sacrificing black level, by
This obtain Toff 4ms or less and maximum transmission rate T100 high voltage-transmission rate characteristic.
