Description

液晶介質
本發明係關於一種液晶介質(LC介質)、其用於電光目的之用途,及包含此介質之LC顯示器。
液晶具體用作顯示裝置中之電介質,此係因為可藉由施加電壓來影響此類物質之光學特性。基於液晶之電光裝置對於熟習此項技術者為極其熟悉的,且可係基於不同效應。此類裝置為(例如)具有動態散射之單元、DAP單元(變形配向相)、賓主單元、具有扭轉向列結構之TN單元、STN單元(「超扭轉向列」)、SBE單元(「超雙折射效應」)及OMI單元(「光模干擾」)。最常用之顯示裝置係基於沙特-黑爾弗里希效應(Schadt-Helfrich effect)且具有扭轉向列結構。
液晶材料必須具有良好的化學及熱穩定性,及關於電場及電磁輻射之良好的穩定性。此外,液晶材料應具有相對較低黏度,且在單元中產生短回應時間、低臨限電壓及高對比度。
另外,在標準操作溫度下(亦即,在低於及高於室溫之極其寬泛的範圍中),其應具有合適的介相,例如用於上述單元之向列型或膽固醇型介相。由於一般以若干組分之混合物之形式採用液晶,因此組分相互具有良好的混溶性係至關重要的。根據使用之單元類型及領域,諸如導電率、介電各向異性及光學各向異性之其他特性必須滿足不同需要。舉例而言,用於具有扭轉向列結構之單元的材料應具有正介電各向異性及低導電率。
舉例而言,對於用於切換個別像素之積體非線性元件的矩陣液晶顯示器(MLC顯示器),需要具有高正介電各向異性、寬向列相、相對較低雙折射率、極高比電阻、良好UV及熱穩定性及低蒸汽壓之介質。
此類矩陣液晶顯示器為已知的。用於個別切換個別像素之非線性元件可為(例如)有源元件(亦即,電晶體)。在彼情況下,參考「主動矩陣」,在此情況下可在以下兩種類型之間加以區分:
1.MOS(金屬氧化物半導體)或在矽晶圓上作為基板之其他二極體。
2.在玻璃板上作為基板之薄膜電晶體(TFT)。
將單晶矽用作基板材料限制顯示器大小,此係因為接合處之不同子顯示器之模組化組合物亦產生問題。
在更有前景之類型2(其為較佳的)中,所用電光效應通常為TN效應。在以下兩種技術之間加以區分:由化合物半導體製造之TFT,例如CdSe;或基於多晶矽或非晶矽之TFT。後一技術為高密度全球研究之目標。
TFT矩陣已應用於顯示器之一個玻璃板的內部,而其他玻璃板在其內部上攜有透明的相對電極。與像素電極之大小相比,TFT極小且實際上並不破壞影像。此技術亦可經擴展用於全色能影像顯示器,其中紅色、綠色及藍色過濾器之馬賽克(mosaic)經配置以使得一個過濾器元件與每一可切換影像元件相對。
TFT顯示器通常充當透射中之具有交叉偏光器之TN單元,且為背光的。
術語「MLC顯示器」在本文中涵蓋具有積體非線性元件的任何矩陣顯示器,亦即,不僅為具有主動矩陣之顯示器,亦具有諸如變阻器或二極體之被動元件的顯示器(MIM=金屬-絕緣體-金屬)。
此類MLC顯示器尤其適用於TV應用(例如攜帶式電視)或用於電腦應用(膝上型電腦)及汽車或飛機建造中之高資訊內容顯示器。除關於對比度之角度依賴性及切換時間之問題外,由於液晶混合物之比電阻不夠高,在MLC顯示器之情況下產生困難[TOGASHI,S.,SEKIGUCHI,K.,TANABE,H.,YAMAMOTO,E.,SORIMACHI,K.,TAJIMA,E.,WATANABE,H.,SHIMIZU,H.,Proc.Eurodisplay 84,1984年9月:A 210-288 Matrix LCD Controlled by Double Stage Diode Rings,第141頁及其後頁,巴黎;STROMER,M.,Proc.Eurodisplay 84,1984年9月:Design of Thin Film Transistors for Matrix Adressing of Television Liquid Crystal Displays,第145頁及其後頁,巴黎]。藉由降低電阻,MLC顯示器之對比度降低,且可出現「後像消除」之問題。由於液晶混合物之比電阻通常經由與顯示器之內表面之相互作用隨MLC顯示器之壽命而減小,所以高(起始)電阻係極其至關重要的以獲得可接受之使用壽命。尤其在低電壓混合物之情況下,迄今為止尚無可能達成極高比電阻。另外,比電阻隨著溫度上升且在熱應力及/或UV暴露之後展示最小增量係至關重要的。另一特定缺點為來自先前技術之混合物之低溫特性。需要的是,即使在低溫下仍不會出現結晶及/或矩列液晶相,且黏度之溫度依賴性處於最低。先前技術之MLC顯示器因此並不滿足當前需要。
除使用背光(亦即,以透射及可能半穿透半反射之方式操作)之液晶顯示器外,反射式液晶顯示器亦備受關注。此等反射式液晶顯示器使用環境光來呈現資訊。因此,其比具有相應大小及解析度之背光式液晶顯示器明顯消耗更少的能源。由於TN效應之特徵在於極佳對比度,即使在明亮的環境條件下,此類反射式顯示器仍具有極佳可讀性。根據(例如)腕錶及攜帶式計算器中所使用之簡單反射式TN顯示器,此為已知的。然而,該原理亦可應用於高品質、較高解析度、主 動式矩陣驅動顯示器,例如,TFT顯示器。在本文中,如在一般標準透射式TFT-TN顯示器之情況下,使用具有低雙折射率(Δn)之液晶係必要的以便達成低光阻滯(d.Δn)。此種低光阻滯產生通常可接受之小對比度之視角依賴性(參見DE 30 22 818)。在反射式顯示器中,使用具有低雙折射率之液晶相較於在透射式顯示器中甚至更加重要,此係由於光在反射式顯示器中穿過之有效層厚度約為具有相同層厚度之透射式顯示器的兩倍。
為藉助於快門眼鏡實現3D效果,尤其使用具有低旋轉黏度及相對應高光學各向異性(Δn)之快速切換混合物。可使用具有高光學各向異性(Δn)之混合物來達成電光透鏡系統,藉由該電光透鏡系統顯示器之2維圖像可切換成3維自動立體圖像。
因此,仍亟需具有極高比電阻(具有大工作溫度範圍)、短切換時間(即使在低溫下)及低臨限電壓之MLC顯示器,其僅較小程度顯示此等缺點(若存在)。
在TN(沙特-黑爾弗里希(Schadt-Helfrich))單元之情況下,需要能夠在單元中實現以下優點之介質:
- 經擴展之向列相範圍(尤其在低溫下)
- 極低溫度下(戶外用途、汽車、航空電子設備)之切換能力
- 提高之UV輻射耐受性(較長使用壽命)
- 低臨限電壓。
藉由獲自先前技術之介質,不可能在達成此等優點的同時維持其他參數。現代平面LCD螢幕需要更加快之切換時間,以便能夠實際地呈現多媒體內容,例如電影及視訊遊戲。此又需要具有極低旋轉黏度γ1與高光學各向異性Δn之向列型液晶混合物。為獲得所需要之旋轉黏度,正尋求使尤其有利的γ1/澄清點比率與高Δn及高極性結合之物質。
在超扭轉(STN)單元之情況下,需要能夠實現更高多路複用性能及/或較低臨限電壓及/或較寬向列相範圍之介質(尤其在低溫下)。出於此目的,迫切地需要進一步擴展可用的參數空間(澄清點、矩列-向列轉變或熔點、黏度、介電參數、彈性參數)。
尤其在用於TV及視訊應用之LC顯示器(例如,LCD TV、監視器、PDA、筆記型電腦、遊戲控制台)之情況下,需要明顯地縮短切換時間。此需要具有低旋轉黏度及高介電各向異性之LC混合物。同時,LC介質應具有高澄清點。
本發明所基於之問題為,提供尤其用於MLC、TN、PS-TN、STN、ECB、OCB、IPS、PS-IPS、FFS、PS-FFS或正-VA顯示器之介質的問題,該等顯示器僅較小程度地顯示以上所說明之缺點(若有),且較佳地具有快速切換時間且同時具有低旋轉黏度之高澄清點,及高介電各向異性及低臨限電壓。
現已發現,當使用如下文所描述之LC介質時,可解決此問題。

已發現,在具有標準液晶材料、尤其具有一或多種式II至式XXX化合物之混合物中使用如上文所描述之式1至式7化合物,在觀察到較寬向列相與低矩列-向列型轉變溫度的同時,產生相當大的光穩定性增量並產生相對較高的雙折射率值,其結果使得儲存穩定性得以改良。同時,混合物在UV暴露下顯示極低臨限電壓及極佳VHR值及極高澄清點。
本申請案中之表述「烷基」或「烷基*」涵蓋具有1至6個碳原子之直鏈及分支鏈烷基,尤其為直鏈甲基、乙基、丙基、丁基、戊基及己基。具有2至5個碳原子之基團通常為較佳的。
表述「烯基」或「烯基*」涵蓋具有2至6個碳原子之直鏈及分支鏈烯基,尤其直鏈基團。較佳烯基為C2至C7-1E-烯基、C4至C6-3E-烯基,尤其為C2至C6-1E-烯基。尤其較佳之烯基之實例為乙烯基、1E-丙烯基、1E-丁烯基、1E-戊烯基、1E-己烯基、3-丁烯基、3E-戊烯基、3E-己烯基、4-戊烯基、4Z-己烯基、4E-己烯基及5-己烯基。具有 至多5個碳原子之基團通常為較佳的,尤其為CH2=CH、CH3CH=CH。
表述「氟烷基」較佳地涵蓋具有末端氟之直鏈基團,亦即氟甲基、2-氟乙基、3-氟丙基、4-氟丁基、5-氟戊基、6-氟己基及7-氟庚基。然而,並不排除氟之其他位置。
表述「氧雜烷基」或「烷氧基」較佳地涵蓋式CnH2n+1-O-(CH2)m之直鏈基團,其中n及m各自獨立地為1至6之整數。m亦可為0。較佳地,n=1且m為1至6或m=0且n=1至3。
經由選擇合適的R0及X0之定義,有可能以適宜方式改變透射特徵之回應時間、臨限電壓、傾斜度等。舉例而言,與烷基或烷氧基相比,1E-烯基、3E-烯基、2E-烯氧基及類似者通常產生更短回應時間、改良之向列趨勢及彈性常數k33(彎曲)與k11(傾斜)之更高比率。與烷基及烷氧基相比,4-烯基、3-烯基及類似者通常產生更低的臨限電壓及更低的k33/k11值。根據本發明之混合物之高Δε值尤其顯著,且因此具有比根據先前技術之混合物快得多的切換時間。
上述式化合物之最佳比率實質上視所需特性而定,視上述式之組分之選擇及存在的任何其他組分之選擇而定。
可根據各種情況容易地確定上文所指定之範圍內之合適的比率。
根據本發明之混合物中之上述式化合物之總量並非關鍵的。出於最佳化各種特性之目的,該等混合物可因此包含一或多種其他組分。然而,大體而言,上述式化合物之總濃度愈高,所觀測到之對混合物之特性中之所需改良影響愈大。
在一尤佳實施例中,根據本發明之介質包含式II至式VIII(較佳地,式II、式III、式IV及式V,尤其式IIa及式IIIa)化合物,其中X0為F、OCF3、OCHF2、OCH=CF2、OCF=CF2或OCF2-CF2H。
可用於根據本發明之介質中之上述式及其子式之個別化合物為已知的或可類似於已知化合物來製備。
本發明亦提供電光顯示器(例如,STN或MLC顯示器),其具有:兩個平面平行的承載板,其與邊框一起形成單元;用於切換承載板上之個別像素之整合式非線性元件;及在單元內具有正介電各向異性及高比電阻之向列型液晶混合物,該等電光顯示器出於電光目的包含此類介質且亦使用此等介質。
根據本發明之液晶混合物能夠顯著擴展可用參數空間。澄清點、低溫下之黏度、熱及UV穩定性及高光學各向異性之可達成組合遠優於先前技術之現有材料。
根據本發明之混合物尤其適用於行動應用及TFT應用,例如行動電話及PDA。另外,根據本發明之混合物可用於FFS、VA-IPS、OCB及IPS顯示器。

顯而易見,經由適當地選擇根據本發明之混合物的組分,亦有可能在保持其他有利特性之情況下在較高臨限電壓下獲得較高澄清點(例如,超過100℃)或在較低臨限電壓下獲得較低澄清點。同樣可能藉由相應地略微增大黏度而獲得具有較大Δε及因此低臨限值之混合 物。根據本發明之MLC顯示器較佳地以根據Gooch及Tarry[C.H.Gooch及H.A.Tarry,Electron.Lett.10,2-4,1974;C.H.Gooch及H.A.Tarry,Appl.Phys.,第8卷,1575-1584,1975]之第一透射最小值工作;除特定有利之電光特性(例如,高傾斜度之特徵及低角度依賴性之對比(DE-C 30 22 818))以外,在相同臨限電壓下,相較於在呈第二最小值之類似顯示器中,較小介電各向異性在此處係足夠的。此使得有可能使用根據本發明之混合物以第一最小值達成比在具有氰基化合物之混合物之情況下高得多的比電阻。經由適當地選擇個別組分及其重量%比例,熟習此項技術者將能夠藉由簡單的常規方法來確立MLC顯示器之給定層厚度所需之雙折射率。
電壓保持率(HR)之量測[S.Matsumoto等人,Liquid Crystals 5,1320(1989);K.Niwa等人,Proc.SID Conference,San Francisco,1984年6月,第304頁(1984);G.Weber等人,Liquid Crystals 5,1381(1989)]已展示,包含一或多種式1化合物、一或多種式2化合物、一或多種式3至式5化合物及一或多種式6及/或式7化合物的根據本發明之混合物在UV暴露下,HR降低得比包含式

之酯的類似混合物小得多。
根據本發明之混合物之光穩定性及UV穩定性顯著地更佳,意謂其在暴露於光或UV下顯示HR之降低明顯地更小。
由極化器、電極基板及經過表面處理之電極組成之根據本發明之MLC顯示器之建造對應於此類顯示器之習用設計。表述「習用設計」在本文經概括地解釋且亦涵蓋MLC顯示器之全部衍生及修改,尤其亦基於聚-Si TFT或MIM之矩陣顯示元件。
然而,根據本發明之顯示器與已習用至今、基於扭轉向列單元 之彼等顯示器的主要差異為液晶層之液晶參數的選擇。
可根據本發明使用之液晶混合物係以習用方式生產,例如藉由將一或多種式1化合物及一或多種式2化合物與一或多種式3至式5化合物及一或多種式6及/或式7化合物及視情況選用之一或多種式II至式XXVIII化合物或與其他液晶化合物及/或添加劑混合。一般而言,將使用量較少之所需量之組分在高溫下適當地溶解於構成主要成分之組分中。亦有可能將組分在有機溶劑(例如丙酮、三氯甲烷或甲醇)中之溶液混合,且在混合之後(例如)藉由蒸餾再次移除溶劑。
介電質亦可包含其他為熟習此項技術者已知且描述於文獻中之添加劑,例如諸如Tinuvin®之UV穩定劑(例如,來自Ciba Chemicals之Tinuvin® 770)、抗氧化劑(例如TEMPOL)、微米粒子、自由基清除劑、奈米粒子等。舉例而言,有可能添加0%至15%之多色染料或對掌性摻雜劑。在下文之表C及表D中說明合適的穩定劑及摻雜劑。
另外有可能以(按該混合物計)較佳地0.12重量%至5重量%、更佳地0.2%至2%之濃度將如(例如)US 6,861,107中所揭示之稱作反應性液晶原(RM)之可聚合化合物添加至根據本發明之混合物中。視情況,此等混合物亦可包含如(例如)US 6,781,665中所描述之引發劑。較佳地將引發劑(例如來自Ciba之Irganox 1076)以0%至1%之量添加至包含可聚合化合物之混合物中。此種混合物可用於所謂的聚合物穩定(polymer-stabilized;PS)模式,其中待產生液晶混合物中反應性液晶原之聚合以(例如)用於PS-IPS、PS-FFS、PS-TN、PS-VA-IPS。對此之前提條件為液晶混合物本身並不含有任何可聚合組分。
