This liquid crystal panel 1 has a structure in which a liquid crystal layer made of transparent resin 12 and liquid crystal 13 is inserted between a pair of opposing electrodes 11a and llb. The liquid crystal layer is formed by finely dispersing liquid crystal 13 having an electro-optical effect in a transparent resin 12, and at least one of the electrodes 11a11b is transparent.

いる。Such liquid crystal panels utilize the fact that the refractive index of the liquid crystal changes by applying or removing voltage between the electrodes, which changes the amount of light transmitted, and is combined with materials such as glass. It is used as window materials, blinds, and video screens that can be made transparent or opaque.
前記液晶パネルを作製する方法としては、たとえば、下
記■、■、■の方法がある。Examples of methods for manufacturing the liquid crystal panel include methods (1), (2), and (2) below.
■ 液晶を内包した粒状のマイクロカプセルを透明樹脂

しかし、いずれの方法においても、液晶層を形成させた

晶パネルを形成する必要がある。However, in either method, after forming the liquid crystal layer, it is necessary to bring electrodes into close contact with the front and back surfaces of the liquid crystal layer to form a liquid crystal panel.
その際、液晶層を電極と密着させる方法は、種々考えら
れるが、通常は接着剤を塗布したり、オートクレーブ中
で加熱圧着したりする方法が採られている。At this time, various methods can be considered for bringing the liquid crystal layer into close contact with the electrodes, but usually methods such as applying an adhesive or heat-pressing in an autoclave are adopted.
ところが、従来の方法により得られた液晶パネルは、液
晶層と電極との密着性が悪いため、電界応答性が低く、
また、加熱圧着させる方法による場合、液晶の分離や凝
集により液晶層にヘーズ(濁り)が生じて、光学的特性
が低下するといった問題があった。However, liquid crystal panels obtained using conventional methods have low electric field response due to poor adhesion between the liquid crystal layer and electrodes.
Further, when using a method of heat-pressing, there is a problem that separation or aggregation of liquid crystals causes haze (turbidity) in the liquid crystal layer, resulting in deterioration of optical properties.
このような事情に鑑み、この発明は、液晶層と電極との
密着性が良いとともに、加熱圧着を経ずに容易に製造す

In a liquid crystal panel having a structure in which a liquid crystal layer is inserted, the liquid crystal layer and the electrode are in close contact with each other by photocurable adhesive.The electrode used in this invention is not particularly limited. For example, conductive 1tFJ made of tin and indium oxide (ITO) can be deposited on a substrate by vacuum evaporation, sputtering, or sol-gel method.
Examples include those that have been formed. The base material for such an electrode is not particularly limited, but glass, plastic film, etc. are preferable. Specifically, in the case of glass,
Examples include soda glass and borosilicate glass, and, in the case of plastic films, polyethylene terephthalate and acrylic films. The resistance value required for this electrode is not particularly limited, as long as it functions as an electrode, and usually, it may be in the range of 0 to several hundreds of ohms. In the present invention, the electrode on at least one side of the liquid crystal panel may be transparent, for example, transparent to ultraviolet rays or visible light. That is, the electrodes on one side may be transparent and the electrodes on the other side may be made of an opaque material such as metal such as aluminum, gold, nickel, or copper. It works not on the light but on the reflected light.

Any ordinary material may be used, but one with good liquid crystal dispersibility is preferred.

安となる。つまり、Δnが大きい程、電界を印加したと
きと印加しないときの変化が大きいことを示している。The liquid crystal to be dispersed in the transparent resin is not particularly limited, and includes, for example, nematic, smectic, and cholesteric types, but nematic type is preferred because it has excellent responsiveness to electric fields. The electro-optical effect exhibited by nematic liquid crystals is, for example, known as birefringence, which is due to the optical properties of the molecules that make up the liquid crystal. That is, it has two different refractive indices no % n l. The difference between n and nl indicates the birefringence Δn, which is a measure of the change in refractive index when the liquid crystal is subjected to an electric field and molecules are aligned. In other words, the larger Δn is, the greater the change between when an electric field is applied and when it is not applied.
