As the information society develops, the demand for display devices is increasing in various forms, and various kinds of flat panel display devices have been developed and used. Among them, the liquid crystal display is a flat panel display which is widely used for various purposes. As such, various technological advances have been made in order for LCDs to function as screen displays in various fields, and the goal is to realize high quality images while maintaining the characteristics of light weight, thinness, and low power consumption.

복굴절성을 이용한 STN-LCD에서는 샐 자체에 복굴절성이 있기 때문에 액정 셀을 투과해 왔던 빛에 위상지연 (빛의 일그러짐)이 생긴다. 이 때문에 STN 패널에서는 위상지연 필름이 색 보상용 필름으로써 병행하여 사용되고 있다. 위상지연 필름은 타원 편광에 의해 생기는 blue mode 혹은 yellow mode라고 불리우는 STN 특유의 간섭색 (착색)을 광학적으로 색
보상하는 역할로써 당초 개발되어 왔으며, TFT-LCD의 경우 색 보상 필름으로써의 위상 필름은 불필요 하지만, 최근 들어 시야각의 확대나 화질 향상을 목적으로 각종 위상지연 필름이 적층되고 있고, 보다 다양한 기능의 위상지연 필름이 요구되고 있다. 또한, 3D 입체영상 재현 기술의 발전과 더불어 패턴된 위상지연 필름을 사용하여 좌안 영상과 우안 영상의 편광 방향을 다르게 만들어 주는 기술이 발전하고 있다. 위상지연 필름의 제조 기술로는 연신기술과 배향기술이 있으며, 특히 편광, 반사, 굴절, 간섭, 회절, 산란에 대하여 모두 고려하기 위해서는 배향기술이 필요하다. In the birefringent STN-LCD, since the cell itself is birefringent, phase delay (light distortion) occurs in light that has passed through the liquid crystal cell. For this reason, in a STN panel, a phase delay film is used in parallel as a film for color compensation. The phase delay film is optically colored by the STN-specific interference color (coloring) called blue mode or yellow mode caused by elliptical polarization. It was originally developed as a compensating role, and in the case of TFT-LCD, a phase film as a color compensating film is unnecessary, but in recent years, various phase delay films have been laminated for the purpose of expanding the viewing angle and improving the image quality, and have various phases of functions. Retardation films are required. In addition, with the development of 3D stereoscopic image reproduction technology, a technology for making polarization directions of left and right eyes different from each other by using a patterned phase delay film has been developed. As the manufacturing technique of the phase delay film, there are stretching techniques and alignment techniques, and in particular, alignment techniques are necessary to consider all of polarization, reflection, refraction, interference, diffraction, and scattering.
액정의 초기 배열을 결정하는 배향은 주로 러빙 (rubbing) 방법을 사용하여 배향막을 특정 방향으로 쓸어줌으로써 행한다. 그런데 러빙 방법은 기계적으로 이루어지는 방법이어서 액정의 초기 배향 상태를 정밀하게 조절하기가 어렵고, 미세한 영역별로 서로 다른 선경사각을 가지도록 하기가 어렵다. 이때, 기판의 배향막을 미소한 단위 영역마다 다른 방향을 나타내도록 배향시키기 위해서는 두 번의 배향 공정을 행하는 것이 일반적인데, 이와 같은 공정을 위하여 마스크가사용되고 있다. The orientation for determining the initial arrangement of the liquid crystal is mainly performed by rubbing the alignment film in a specific direction using a rubbing method. However, since the rubbing method is a mechanical method, it is difficult to precisely control the initial alignment state of the liquid crystal, and it is difficult to have different pretilt angles for each minute region. At this time, in order to orient the alignment film of the substrate so as to show different directions for each minute unit region, it is common to perform two alignment processes, and a mask is used for such a process.
즉, 일본 등록 특허 제 2650205호에서는 먼저 한쪽 방향으로 러빙 공정을 실시한 뒤 마스크를 패턴된 형태로 도포하고 1차 러빙과 반대 방향으로 러빙을 실시하여 도포된 마스크에서 개구된 부분이 1차 배향 부분과 반대 방향으로 형성될 수 있는 기술을 제시하고 있으며, 이때, 1차 러빙 후 상층 배향막 층에 레지스트 (regist)를 도포하고 패턴을 갖는 형태로 빛을 조사하여 패턴으로 노광되는 레지스트 (regist)를 현상하면 이 현상액에 의하여 상층 측 배향층이 에칭 (etching)되고 하층 측 배향층은 노출되어지며 2차 러빙을 실시함으로써 1차 러빙과 다른 방향으로 배향된 배향막을 형성하였으나, 과정이 복잡하고 화학물질인 현상액을 사용함으로써 액정의 배향성능이 저하될 수 있는 문제점이 있으며, 마스크를 패턴된 형태로 부착하는 과정에서 정교하게 부착하기에 어려울 수 있는 단점이 있다. That is, in Japanese Patent No. 2650205, first, a rubbing process is performed in one direction, and then the mask is applied in a patterned form, and then the rubbing is performed in a direction opposite to the first rubbing, so that the opened part of the applied mask has It proposes a technique that can be formed in the opposite direction, in this case, by applying a resist to the upper alignment layer layer after the first rubbing and irradiating light in the form of a pattern to develop a resist exposed in the pattern The developer was etched by the developer, the underlying layer was exposed, and second rubbing was performed to form an alignment film oriented in a direction different from the first rubbing. There is a problem that the alignment performance of the liquid crystal can be lowered by using a, and the fineness in the process of attaching the mask There is a disadvantage that may be difficult to attach.
또한, 일본 등록 특허 제 3596727호에서는 패턴된 제 1의 영역과 제 2의 영역에 있어서, 먼저 게 1의 영역을 마스크로 도포하고 계 2의 영역은 노출 시킨 후, 1차 러빙을 실시하고 마스크를 제거한 뒤, 복굴절 층을
설치하고 2차 러빙을 실시함으로써 패턴된 위상지연 필름을 제조하는 방법을 제시하였으나, 공정 단계가 복잡하고 마스크를 패턴함에 있어서 서로 배향이 다른 영역 간의 경계선이 불분명하게 형성될 수 있는 단점이 있다. 더욱이 배향 공정이 1회 추가될 때마다, 공정 속도는 느려지게 되고, 이는 생산성 하락의 가장 큰 원인이 된다. 이로 인해 제품의 가격이 상승하는 원인을 초래할 수 있다. In Japanese Patent No. 3596727, in the first and second patterned areas, first, the area of crab 1 is coated with a mask, and the area of area 2 is exposed, and then first rubbing is performed and the mask is applied. Remove the birefringence layer The present invention proposes a method for manufacturing a patterned phase delay film by installing and performing secondary rubbing, but there is a disadvantage in that a process line is complicated and a boundary line between areas having different orientations may be unclear in patterning a mask. Moreover, each time an orientation process is added, the process speed is slowed down, which is the biggest cause of the decrease in productivity. This may cause the price of the product to rise.

- 본 발명에서는 위상지연필름의 패턴을 형성하기 위하여 마스크를 사용하지 않고, 배향제의 종류가 서로 다른 2종의 배향제를 사용하여 1회의 배향성 형성 공정으로 패턴된 위상지연필름이 제조될 수 있도록 하였다. 따라서, 본 발명은 일 관점에서, (a) 기판 상에 서로 다른 종류의 배향제를 일정간격으로 교차되도록 형성하는 단계; (b) 상기 배향제가프린팅된 기판에 배향성을 형성시키는 단계; 및 (c) 상기 배향성이 형성된 기판 상에 광 경화성 액정 단량체 조성물을 코팅하고 경화하는 단계를 포함하는 패턴된 위상지연필름 (patterned phase retardation film)의 제조방법에 관한 것이다. 원하는 패턴 간격의 위상지연필름을 제조하기 위해서는 위상지연필름에서 요구되는 패턴의 간격을 고려하여 서로 다른 종류의 배향제를 일정간격으로 교차돠도록 형성하는 것이 요구된다. 본 발명에 있어서ᅳ 서로 다른 종류의 배향제가 형성되는 간격은 40 내지 1000 인 것을 특징으로 할 수 있으며, 이는 완성된 패턴된 위상지연필름에서 요구되는 패턴의 간격에 따라 유동적으로 간격을 조정할 수 있어야 하기 때문이다. 본 발명의 패턴된 위상지연필름이 액정 디스플레이 패널쎄
장착되어 사용된다면 액정 디스플레이 패널의 영상 표시 라인에 맞도록 위상지연필름의 패턴의 간격을 조절해야 할 것이다. 입체 영상을 구현하기 위한 패턴된 위상지연필름에 사용되기 위한 일 구현예로서, 본 발명에서 배향제가 형성, 예를 들어, 프린팅되는 간격은 바람직하게는 180 내지 220 가 될 수 있다. 서로 다른 종류의 배향제가 일정간격으로 교차된다는 것은 본 발명의 실시예에서 제조한 것과 같이 두 종의 배향제가 라인 별로 교대로 교차되며, 일정 간격을 이룬다는 것을 의미한다. In the present invention, without using a mask to form a pattern of the phase retardation film, the patterned phase delay film can be produced in a single alignment formation process using two types of alignment agents having different types of alignment agents. It was. Therefore, in one aspect, the present invention comprises the steps of: (a) forming different types of alignment agents on the substrate to be crossed at regular intervals; (b) forming an orientation on the substrate on which the alignment agent is printed; And (c) coating and curing the photocurable liquid crystal monomer composition on the substrate on which the alignment is formed. In order to manufacture a phase delay film having a desired pattern interval, it is required to form different types of alignment agents to cross at regular intervals in consideration of the pattern interval required in the phase delay film. In the present invention, the interval at which the different types of alignment agents are formed may be characterized in that 40 to 1000, which should be able to be adjusted fluidly according to the interval of the pattern required in the completed patterned retardation film Because. The patterned retardation film of the present invention is a liquid crystal display panel If mounted and used, it is necessary to adjust the pattern spacing of the phase delay film to match the image display line of the liquid crystal display panel. As one embodiment for use in the patterned phase delay film for realizing a stereoscopic image, in the present invention, the interval at which the alignment agent is formed, for example, printed, may be preferably 180 to 220. When different types of alignment agents are crossed at regular intervals, it means that two types of alignment agents alternate alternately line by line and form a predetermined interval as manufactured in the embodiment of the present invention.
서로 다른 종류의 배향제를 프린팅하는 기술은 잉크젯 (inkjet), 마이크로 그라비아 (micra-gravure), 오프셋 (offset), 스크린 (screen) 프린팅 등을 이용하는 것이 가능하다. 잉크젯 프린팅은 잉크를 분사하거나 잉크를 뭉쳐서 분사하는 인쇄하는 방법이며, 그라비아 프린팅은 요판 인쇄법 중 하나로, 미세한 농담을 표현할 수 있어 사진 인쇄에 적합한 프린팅 기법이다. 또한 오프셋 프린팅은 판에서 직접 피 인쇄물에 인쇄를 하지 않고, 중개 구실을 하는 고무 블탱킷에 일단 전사 인쇄한 다음, 용지에 인쇄하는 방법이고, 스크린 프린팅은 큰 규모의 기계를 쓰지 않는 핸드 프린트의 일종으로, 재료를 판자에 붙이고 한 장씩 프린트하는 것을 말한다. 실크 스크린, 불록 프린트라고도 한다. 이외에도 투명한 기판 위에 패턴 간격에 따라서 프린팅이 가능한 기술을 이용하여 동일한 효과를 부여할 수 있는 프린팅 기법을 사용할 수 있다. 본 발명에서는 이러한 프린팅 기법을 사용하여 서로 다른 종류의 배향제를 정교하게 일정 간격으로 프린팅함으로써, 경계지점의 직진성이 정교하고 우수한 패턴된 위상지연필름을 제조하는 것이 가능하도록 하였다. Techniques for printing different kinds of alignment agents may use inkjet, microgravure, offset, screen printing and the like. Inkjet printing is a method of printing by ejecting ink or by agglomerating ink, and gravure printing is one of intaglio printing methods, and is a printing technique suitable for photo printing because it can express minute shades. In addition, offset printing is a method that does not print directly on a printed matter from a plate, transfers it to a rubber blanket that acts as an intermediary, and then prints on paper, and screen printing is a kind of hand print that does not use a large-scale machine. By attaching the material to the board and printing one by one. Also called silk screen, block print. In addition, a printing technique capable of giving the same effect by using a technology capable of printing on a transparent substrate according to pattern spacing may be used. In the present invention, by using the printing technique to precisely print different types of alignment agents at regular intervals, it is possible to produce a patterned phase delay film having a precise and excellent straightness of the boundary point.
서로 다른 종류의 배향제가 일정간격으로 프린팅 되어 있는 기판 상에 배향성을 형성하게 되면, 배향제마다 배향성의 방향이 다르게 형성되기 때문에, 일정간격으로 서로 다른 방향의 배향성이 교차되도록 형성되는 것이 가능하다. 이는 서로 다른 종류의 배향제가 동일한 방향의 배향성 형성 공정에 의하여 서로 다른 방향의 배향성이 형성된다는 점에 기인한다. 따라서, 일정간격으로 서로 직교인 배향성이 형성되도록 하고자 하는 경우, 서로 다른 종류의 배향제 중 일종의 배향제는 배향성 형성 방향과 평행하게
배향성이 형성되고, 다른 종의 배향제는 배향성 형성 방향과 직교 방향으로 배향성이 형성되도록 구성하는 것이 바람직할 것이다. When different types of alignment agents are formed on the substrate on which the alignment agents are printed at regular intervals, since the orientations of the alignment agents are differently formed for each of the alignment agents, it is possible to be formed such that the orientations in different directions cross at regular intervals. This is due to the fact that different kinds of alignment agents form alignment in different directions by an alignment forming process in the same direction. Therefore, when it is desired to form orthogonality perpendicular to each other at regular intervals, one type of alignment agent among different types of alignment agents may be parallel to the direction in which the alignment is formed. Orientation will be formed, and it will be preferable to comprise so that the other type of alignment agent may form orientation in the direction orthogonal to the orientation formation direction.
서로 다른 배향제의 종류는 배향성 형성 공정에 따라 달라지게 된다. 배향성을 형성시키기 위하여 러빙 (rubbing) 공정을 사용한다면, 그에 맞도록 러빙 배향제가 사용되어야 한다. 러빙 공정은 기판을 물리적으로 한쪽 방향으로 쓸어주어 배향성을 형성시키는 공정이다. 기판에 천이나 나일론과 같은 러빙 포가 직접적으로 접촉하여 배향 효과를 부여하는 방식이기 때문에, 접촉식 방식이 지닐 수 있는 정전기, 먼지 발생과 같은 문제가 발생할 수 있지만, 여타 비접촉식 (광배향, 이온빔 등) 방식과 비교하여 빠른 공정 속도를 나타낸다. 본 발명에 있어서, 배향성 형성 공정을 위하여 러빙 공정을 사용하는 경우, 상기 서로 다른 배향제는 각각 러빙 방향과 평행으로 배향성이 형성되는 배향제와 러빙 방향과 직교 방향으로 배향성이 형성되는 배향제로 되는 것을 특징으로 할 수 있다. Different kinds of alignment agents will depend on the alignment forming process. If a rubbing process is used to form the orientation, then a rubbing alignment agent must be used accordingly. A rubbing process is a process of physically sweeping a board | substrate in one direction, and forming orientation. Since the rubbing cloth such as cloth or nylon comes into direct contact with the substrate to give an orientation effect, it may cause problems such as static electricity and dust generation that the contact method may have, but other non-contact types (photo-alignment, ion beam, etc.) It shows a faster process speed compared to the method. In the present invention, when the rubbing process is used for the orientation forming process, the different aligning agents may be an aligning agent in which the alignment is formed in a direction perpendicular to the rubbing direction and an alignment agent in which the alignment is formed in parallel with the rubbing direction, respectively. It can be characterized.
본 발명에 있어서, 러빙 방향과 평행으로 배향성이 형성되는 배향제는 폴리이미드 (polyimide), 폴리비닐알코올 (poly vinyl alcohol), 폴리아믹산 (polyamic acid), 폴리아미드 (polyamide) 및 폴리옥시에틸렌 (polyoxyethylene)으로 구성된 군에서 선택될 수 있으며, 러빙 방향과 직교 방향으로 배향성이 형성되는 배향제는 하기 화학식 1의 폴리스타일렌 (polystylene), 화학식 2의 CBDA-FDA PI (poly-(4,4'-(9,9- fluorenyl)diphenylene cyclobutanyltetracarboximide), 화학식 3의 C4-PMDA- PDA PI (poly{p-pheylene 3,6-bis[4-(n-butoxy)phenyloxy] pyromellitimide}, 화학식 4의 SBF-CBDA PI (poly(2,7-(9,9'-spirobifluorene cyclobutyltetracarboximide)), 및 화학식 5의 SBF-6FDA (poly(2,7-(9,9'- spirobifluorene 4,4'-(hexafluoroisopropylidene)diphthalimide))≤. 구성된 군에서 선택될 수 있으며, 이에 제한되지 않고 러빙 방향과 직교 방향으로 배향성이 형성되는 배향제라면 본 발명의 범위에 속한다고 할 것이다. 본 발명의 일 실시예에서는 CBDA-FDA PI를 사용하여 러빙 배향을 실시하는 경우 러빙 방향과 직교 방향으로 배향성이 형성되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

본 발명에서 상기 (b) 단계의 배향성 형성은 앞에서 설명한 러빙 공정에 의한 것 이외에, 한쪽 방향으로 편광된 광을 조사하여 배향성을 형성시키는 광배향 공정에 의하여 이루어지는 것을 특징으로 할 수 있다. 상기 공정은 빛을 조사하는 공정만으로 배향을 시킬 수 있는 비접촉 방식의 공정으로서, 일반적으로 광중합 (photo-dimerization), 광이성질화 (photo- isomerization) 및 광분해 (photo-decomposition) 방식으로 분류할 수 있다. 특히 광분해 방식은 300 nm 이하의 단파장의 편광된 빛을 이용하여 배향막의 고분자 사슬을 분해시킴으로써, 배향력을 형성하는 원리를 갖는다. 즉 한쪽 방향으로 편광된 선편광의 빛을 광배향제에 조사하면, 광배향제의 분자구조가 변형되면서 일정한 배향성이 형성된다. 광 배향을 위한 광은 10 내지 200mW/cm2 로 편광된 ,자외선을 사용할 수 있다. 단, 광배향을 형성하기 위한 최소의 광 세기는 광배향제의 분자 구조와 광 개시제에 따라 달라질 수 있다. 즉, 광배향제의 분자 구조를 변형시키거나 광 개시제를 활성화할 수 있는 최소 광 에너지량이 광배향을 위한 최소 광 세기라 명명할 수 있다. In the present invention, in addition to the rubbing process described above, the orientation formation in step (b) may be performed by a photoalignment process for forming orientation by irradiating light polarized in one direction. The process is a non-contact process that can be oriented by only a light irradiation process, generally can be classified by photo-dimerization, photo-isomerization and photo-decomposition method. have. In particular, the photolysis method has a principle of forming an alignment force by decomposing the polymer chain of the alignment layer using polarized light having a short wavelength of 300 nm or less. That is, when the light of linearly polarized light polarized in one direction is irradiated to the photoalignment agent, the molecular structure of the photoalignment agent is deformed, and thus a uniform orientation is formed. Light for optical alignment can be used for the ultraviolet polarized light of 10 to 200mW / cm 2. However, the minimum light intensity for forming the photoalignment may vary depending on the molecular structure and photoinitiator of the photoalignment agent. That is, the minimum amount of light energy capable of modifying the molecular structure of the photoalignment agent or activating the photoinitiator may be referred to as the minimum light intensity for photoalignment.
배향성을 형성하는 공정이 광 배향에 의하여 이루어지는 경우, 그에 맞도록 광배향제가 사용되.어야 한다. 본 발명에서, 서로 다른 배향제는 각각 조사되는 광의 편광 방향과 평행으로 배향성이 형성되는 배향제와, 조사되는 광의 편광 방향과 직교 방향으로 배향성이 형성되는 배향제로 될 수 있다. 상기 조사되는 광의 편광 방향과 평행으로 배향성이 형성되는 배향제는 폴리이미드 (polyimide), 폴리아믹에시드 (polyamic acid), 폴리노보넨 (p이 ynorbornene), 페닐말레이미드 공중합체 (phenylmaleimide copolymer), 플리아조벤젠 (polyazobenzene),
폴리에틸렌이민 (polyethyleneimide), 폴리비닐알콜 (polyvinyl alcohol), 폴리에틸렌 (pcilyethylene), 폴리스타일렌 (polystylene), 폴리페닐렌프탈아미드 (polyphenylenephthalamide), 폴리에스테르 (polyester), 폴리메틸 메타크릴레이트 (polymethyl methacrylate) 및 CBDA-FDA PI (poly- (4,4'-(9,9-fluorenyl)diphenylene cyclobutanyltetracarboximide)로 구성된 군에서 선택되는 것을 특징으로 할 수 있으며, 상기 조사되는 광의 편광 방향과 직교 방향으로 배향성이 형성되는 배향제는 하기 화학식 6의 CMPI (Chloromethylated polyimide) 및 화학식 7의 폴리비닐신나메이트 (polyvinylcinamate; PVCi)로 구성된 군에서 선택되는 것을 특징으로 할 수 있으나, 이에 제한되지 않고 조사되는 광의 편광 방향과 직교 방향으로 배향성이 형성되는 배향제라면 본 발명의 범위에 속한다고 할 것이다. If the process of forming the orientation is made by photo alignment, then a photoalignment agent should be used to suit it. In the present invention, the different alignment agents may each be an alignment agent in which the orientation is formed in parallel with the polarization direction of the irradiated light, and an alignment agent in which the orientation is formed in the direction orthogonal to the polarization direction of the irradiated light. The alignment agent is formed in parallel with the polarization direction of the irradiated light, polyimide, polyamic acid, polynorbornene (p ynorbornene), phenylmaleimide copolymer, poly Azobenzene (polyazobenzene), Polyethyleneimide, polyvinyl alcohol, polyethylene, polystylene, polyphenylenephthalamide, polyester, polymethyl methacrylate and CBDA-FDA PI (poly- (4,4 '-(9,9-fluorenyl) diphenylene cyclobutanyltetracarboximide) may be selected from the group consisting of, the orientation is formed in a direction perpendicular to the polarization direction of the irradiated light The alignment agent may be selected from the group consisting of CMPI (Chloromethylated polyimide) of Formula 6 and polyvinylcinamate (PVCi) of Formula 7, but is not limited thereto.

CMPᅵ는 기존의 폴리이미드 (P이 yimide; PI)에 클로로메틸 그룹 (chloromethyl group)을 치환 함으로써 기존의 폴리이미드보다 용해성이 좋은 장점을 갖고 있으며 용매의 끓는점이 높아 필름 경화 시 공정의 난이도가 쉬워지는 장점이 있으며, 편광된 UV를 조사해 주면 이 광에 의해서 분자가 비등방적인 분해를 일으키게 되고 생성된 비등방적인 구조로
인하여 액정 이 배향되 게 된다. 일반적으로 pi는 여타 광 배향재에 비하여 열적 안정성 이 높은 장점을 갖고 있다. CMPI는 4,4'- (Hexafluoroisopropylidene) diphthalic anhydride(6FDA) 와 4,4'- Diaminodiphenylether를 NMP에 녹여 중합한 후에 피 리딘 (pyridine)과 아세트산 무수물 (Acetic anhydride)을 사용하여 화학적 이미드화 (chemical imidization)를 한다. 그 후에 클로로메틸 메틸 에 테르 (chloromethyl methyl ether, CMME)와 염화제이주석 (tin(IV) chloride)을 사용하여 클로로 메틸화 반웅 (chloromethylation)을 통한 방법으로 수득할 수 있다. CMP has the advantage of better solubility than the existing polyimide by replacing the chloromethyl group with the existing polyimide (P), and the boiling point of the solvent makes the process difficult during film curing When the light is irradiated with polarized UV light, the light causes anisotropic decomposition of the molecule, resulting in an anisotropic structure. As a result, the liquid crystal is aligned. In general, pi has a high thermal stability compared to other photo-alignment material. CMPI was prepared by dissolving 4,4'- (Hexafluoroisopropylidene) diphthalic anhydride (6FDA) and 4,4'-diaminodiphenylether in NMP to polymerize, followed by chemical imidization using pyridine and acetic anhydride. ) After that, it can be obtained by chloromethylation method using chloromethyl methyl ether (CMME) and tin (IV) chloride.
또한, PVCi는 광배향 재료로서 편광된 빛을 조사해주면 빛의 편광 방향과 직교한 방향으로 배향되는 재료로서 널리 알려져 있지만 광배향 메커 니즘은 아직도 논란이 되고 있으며, 그 내용은 광 조사로 인한 cis/trans isomerization에 의한 것과 이 량체 (dimer)에서의 벤젠 그룹 (benzene group)의 배향성 에 따른 것을 예로 들 수 있다. 이 러 한 논란에도 불구하고 광 배향 메커 니즘에 대한 주장들의 공통점은 배향막 내에서의 구조적 인 이방성과 액정과의 상호작용으로 인하여 배향이 일어난다는 것이다. 상기 PVCi는 폴리비닐알코을 (Polyvinylalcohol)에 신나메이트 그룹 (cinnamate group)을 에 테르화 반응 (etherification)을 통해 치환 함으로서 수득할 수 있다. In addition, PVCi is widely known as a material that is oriented in a direction orthogonal to the polarization direction of light when irradiated with polarized light as a photo-alignment material, but the photo-alignment mechanism is still controversial, and the content of cis / Examples are by trans isomerization and by the orientation of benzene groups in dimers. In spite of this controversy, the common point of claims about the photo alignment mechanism is that the alignment occurs due to the structural anisotropy in the alignment film and the interaction with the liquid crystal. The PVCi can be obtained by substituting polyvinylalcohol (Polyvinylalcohol) with cinnamate group (cinnamate group) through etherification.

종래기술에 의한 패턴된 위상지연필름의 제조 Preparation of patterned phase delay film according to the prior art
본 비교예에서는 종래 기술에 의한 패턴된 위상지연필름을 제조하여, 본 발명에 따른 제조방법에 의해 제조된 패턴된 위상지연필름과 비교하고자 하였다. In this Comparative Example, a patterned phase delay film prepared according to the prior art was compared with a patterned phase delay film manufactured by the manufacturing method according to the present invention.
PI 필름을 5cm X 5cm의 크기로 준비하고, 러빙 방향에 평행하게 배향 특성을 나타내는 배향제인 실시예 1 에서 사용하였던 polyimide를 전면에 A PI film was prepared in a size of 5 cm X 5 cm, and the polyimide used in Example 1, which is an alignment agent exhibiting orientation characteristics parallel to the rubbing direction, was placed on the front surface.

코팅하고, 코팅된 배향막에 1차 러빙을 러빙 depth 1mm, 를 회전 속도 600rpm, 20mm/sec의 stage 이동 속도의 조건으로 실시한 후, 개구부가 200um, 비개구부가 150 의 폭을 가지며 stripe 형태로 패턴을 나타내는 50 m 두께의 러빙 마스크를 그 상부에 위치시킨 후, 1차 러빙 방향에 대해 직교 방향으로 2차 러빙을 실시하였다. 상기 마스크의 개구부와 비개구부의 폭이 일치하지 않는 것은 마스크를 위치시킨 후 실시하는 2차 러빙 시 마스크의 두께에 의해 2차 러빙이 비개구부의 전면에 효과를 부여하지 못하기 때문이다. 따라서, 상대적으로 마스크의 개구부 폭을 비개구부의 폭보다 더 넓게 제작해야 한다. 1.5 After coating, the primary alignment was subjected to rubbing depth 1mm, rotational speed 600rpm, stage movement speed of 20mm / sec, and the opening was 200um and the non-opening was 150 width. After placing the rubbing mask of 50 m thickness shown in the upper part, secondary rubbing was performed in the direction orthogonal to a primary rubbing direction. The widths of the openings and the non-openings of the mask do not coincide because the second rubbing does not give the entire surface of the non-openings due to the thickness of the mask during the second rubbing performed after the mask is placed. Therefore, the opening width of the mask should be made relatively wider than the width of the non-opening portion.

The value of the pattern width was the mean value and the standard deviation value in order to confirm how far it was from the standard value 200 mi and the uniform value in five experiments, and the boundary point and the birefringence value were the average values of the five experiments. As shown in Table 1, 2 and 3, in the case of the patterned phase delay film produced by the manufacturing method according to the present invention, it can be seen that the width of the pattern is formed more stably than the prior art, and the boundary point value In addition, it showed a much lower value than the prior art, it was confirmed that the straightness of the boundary point is significantly improved.
