Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent an interference pattern by forming a reflective mirror on the reverse side of a cell and a silicon nitride insulating film between a transparent electrode and a polyimide orienting film. CONSTITUTION:A transparent front electrode base 1 is composed of a base 11, the transparent electrode 12 of an ITO film, the silicon nitride insulating film 13, and the polyimide orienting film 14 laminated in these order. On the other hand, a transparent reverse electrode base 2 is composed of a base 21, the transparent electrode 22, a silicon nitride insulating film 23, and the polyim ide orienting film 24 laminated in these order. Guest-and-host liquid crystals 3 are sealed in between both transparent bases 1, 2. The reflective layer 4, such as a silver-lined film or a resin layer lined with an aluminum vapor deposited film-SiO2 vapor deposited film, is formed on the reverse side of the base 2.

The table below shows the degree of occurrence of interference patterns and the reflectance in the liquid crystal type anti-glare mirror according to the present invention having the above structure. As a comparative example, a liquid crystal type anti-glare mirror (Comparative Example 1) constructed using a transparent electrode substrate having a structure in which a polyimide alignment film was directly formed on a transparent electrode (ITO film) and a transparent electrode (ITO film) were used.

A liquid crystal anti-glare mirror (Comparative Example 2) constructed using a transparent electrode substrate having a structure provided with an insulating film was selected, and the degree of interference pattern occurrence and reflectance in these mirrors are also shown.

In other words, the interference between the light reflected inside the cell on the front transparent electrode substrate and the light reflected inside the cell on the back transparent electrode substrate causes the film thickness to increase due to the combination of ITO film/silicon nitride film/polyimide alignment film. It can be significantly reduced by controlling it in moderation.
