(技術分野)
本発明は、カイラルスメクテイツク液晶装置に
適した液晶物質の注入方法方法に関する。TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a method for injecting liquid crystal material suitable for chiral smect liquid crystal devices.
(従来技術)
近年、カイラルスメクテイツクC相を使用した
液晶装置は、高速応答性と記憶保持性を持つため
デイスプレイ装置や、カメラ用、プリンタ用の光
シヤツタとして注目されている。(Prior Art) In recent years, liquid crystal devices using chiral smectate C phase have attracted attention as display devices, optical shutters for cameras, and printers because of their high-speed response and memory retention properties.
このカイラルスメクテイツクC相を持つ強誘電
性液晶化合物としては、例えば、P−デシルオキ
シベンジリデン−P−アミノ−2−メチブチルシ
ンナメートが広く知られており、その液晶分子
は、第7図に示したように一定の方位角θを持つ
て層L1,L2,L3,L4毎に捩れた螺旋構造を採つ
て配列している。 As a ferroelectric liquid crystal compound having this chiral smectic C phase, for example, P-decyloxybenzylidene-P-amino-2-methybutylcinnamate is widely known, and its liquid crystal molecules are shown in Figure 7. As shown in the figure, each layer L 1 , L 2 , L 3 , and L 4 is arranged in a twisted spiral structure with a constant azimuth angle θ.
ところで、このカイラルスメクテイツクC相を
持つ液晶化合物をその螺旋周期(通常数μm)よ
りも小さい間隙(例えば1μm程度)を持つ2枚
の基板A,Bの間に注入して液晶セルを構成する
と(第8図イ)、液晶分子は、螺旋構造を消失し
て分子軸を基板A,Bに平行にして層の法線方向
から時計回りに角度θ傾いたドメインと、反時計
回りにθつまり−θ傾いたドメインを混存した状
態を持つとともに(同図ロ)、分子軸に垂直な方
向の電気双極子を備えている。 By the way, a liquid crystal cell is constructed by injecting a liquid crystal compound having this chiral smect C phase between two substrates A and B with a gap (for example, about 1 μm) smaller than the helical period (usually several μm). Then (Fig. 8A), the liquid crystal molecules lose their helical structure and their molecular axes are made parallel to substrates A and B, with domains tilted at an angle θ clockwise from the normal direction of the layers and domains tilted at an angle θ counterclockwise. In other words, it has a mixed state of -θ-inclined domains (FIG. 2B) and an electric dipole in a direction perpendicular to the molecular axis.
このため、一方のドメインが基板A,Bに対し
て上向きの電気双極子を持つと、他方のドメイン
は下向きの電気双極子を持つことになり、したが
つて基板A,B間に電界を印加すると、全ての液
晶分子は、層の法線方向から+θもしくは−θの
いずれか一方に傾いた位置に揃い、また逆向きの
電界を印加すると、液晶分子も反転して−θもし
くは+θ傾いた位置に一斉に揃つた状態で配列す
る。 Therefore, if one domain has an electric dipole pointing upward with respect to substrates A and B, the other domain will have an electric dipole pointing downward, thus applying an electric field between substrates A and B. Then, all the liquid crystal molecules are aligned in positions tilted either +θ or -θ from the normal direction of the layer, and when an electric field in the opposite direction is applied, the liquid crystal molecules are also reversed and tilted -θ or +θ. Arrange them so that they are lined up all at once.
このパネルの両面に偏光板を配設して電界を印
加すると、液晶分子の移動により明状態や暗状態
が生じて表示パネルや光シヤツタとしての機能を
持たせることができる(第9図)。このように構
成した液晶パネルは、マイクロ秒台という非常に
速い応答速度と、一旦表示したパターンを電界除
去後も保持するという優れた特性を持つている。 When polarizing plates are placed on both sides of this panel and an electric field is applied, a bright state and a dark state are generated due to the movement of liquid crystal molecules, allowing it to function as a display panel or light shutter (FIG. 9). The liquid crystal panel constructed in this manner has an extremely fast response speed of microseconds and an excellent property of retaining the displayed pattern even after the electric field is removed.
ところで、上述したように、2枚の基板間隙長
が極めて小さいため、微妙な間隙長差の影響を大
きく受けて第10図に示したように液晶物質の注
入時に液晶物質の流動方向に大きな乱れを生じ
る。 By the way, as mentioned above, since the gap length between the two substrates is extremely small, the slight gap length difference greatly affects the flow direction of the liquid crystal substance when it is injected, as shown in Figure 10. occurs.
ところが、上述した優れた電気的特性を発揮さ
せるために、一方の基板が一軸配向により液晶分
子の配向方向を規制されているとしても、他方の
基板は、液晶分子が電界の作用を受けたときに移
動しやすいフリーな面となるようにランダム配向
等の処理が行なわれている。このため、注入され
た液晶物質の基板表面の初期配向状態は、注入さ
れた液晶の流入方向に支配されてしまい、好まし
いランダム配向状態を得ることができず光−電気
特性にバラつきを生じるという問題があつた。 However, in order to exhibit the above-mentioned excellent electrical properties, even if the orientation direction of the liquid crystal molecules on one substrate is regulated by uniaxial alignment, the orientation direction of the liquid crystal molecules on the other substrate is controlled by uniaxial alignment. Processes such as random orientation are performed to create a free surface that is easy to move. For this reason, the initial alignment state of the injected liquid crystal material on the substrate surface is controlled by the inflow direction of the injected liquid crystal, and a desirable random alignment state cannot be obtained, resulting in variations in opto-electrical characteristics. It was hot.
