Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a substrate having a liquid crystal alignment film for a horizontal electric field drive type liquid crystal display element. More specifically, the present invention relates to a novel method for manufacturing a liquid crystal display device having excellent image sticking characteristics.
  • the liquid crystal display element is known as a light, thin, and low power consumption display device and has been remarkably developed in recent years.
  • the liquid crystal display element is configured, for example, by sandwiching a liquid crystal layer between a pair of transparent substrates provided with electrodes.
  • an organic film made of an organic material is used as the liquid crystal alignment film so that the liquid crystal is in a desired alignment state between the substrates.
  • the liquid crystal alignment film is a component of the liquid crystal display element, and is formed on the surface of the substrate that holds the liquid crystal in contact with the liquid crystal, and plays a role of aligning the liquid crystal in a certain direction between the substrates.
  • the liquid crystal alignment film may be required to play a role of controlling the pretilt angle of the liquid crystal in addition to the role of aligning the liquid crystal in a certain direction such as a direction parallel to the substrate.
  • alignment control ability is given by performing an alignment treatment on the organic film constituting the liquid crystal alignment film.
  • the rubbing method is a method of rubbing (rubbing) the surface of an organic film such as polyvinyl alcohol, polyamide or polyimide on a substrate with a cloth such as cotton, nylon or polyester in the rubbing direction (rubbing direction).
  • This is a method of aligning liquid crystals. Since this rubbing method can easily realize a relatively stable alignment state of liquid crystals, it has been used in the manufacturing process of conventional liquid crystal display elements.
  • an organic film used for the liquid crystal alignment film a polyimide-based organic film excellent in reliability such as heat resistance and electrical characteristics has been mainly selected.
  • Anisotropy is formed in the organic film constituting the liquid crystal alignment film by linearly polarized light or collimated light, and the liquid crystal is aligned according to the anisotropy.
  • a decomposition type photo-alignment method is known as a main photo-alignment method.
  • the polyimide film is irradiated with polarized ultraviolet rays, and anisotropic decomposition is caused by utilizing the polarization direction dependence of the ultraviolet absorption of the molecular structure. Then, the liquid crystal is aligned by the polyimide remaining without being decomposed (see, for example, Patent Document 1).
  • photocrosslinking type and photoisomerization type photo-alignment methods are also known.
  • polyvinyl cinnamate is used and irradiated with polarized ultraviolet rays to cause a dimerization reaction (crosslinking reaction) at the double bond portion of two side chains parallel to the polarized light. Then, the liquid crystal is aligned in a direction perpendicular to the polarization direction (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 1).
  • the liquid crystal alignment film alignment treatment method by the photo alignment method does not require rubbing, and there is no fear of generation of dust or static electricity.
  • An alignment process can be performed even on a substrate of a liquid crystal display element having an uneven surface, which is a method for aligning a liquid crystal alignment film suitable for an industrial production process.
  • the photo-alignment method eliminates the rubbing process itself as compared with the rubbing method that has been used industrially as an alignment treatment method for liquid crystal display elements, and thus has a great advantage. And compared with the rubbing method in which the alignment control ability becomes almost constant by rubbing, the photo alignment method can control the alignment control ability by changing the irradiation amount of polarized light.
  • the photo-alignment method in order to achieve the same degree of alignment control ability as in the rubbing method, a large amount of polarized light irradiation may be required or stable liquid crystal alignment may not be realized. .
  • the present invention provides a substrate having a liquid crystal alignment film for a horizontal electric field drive type liquid crystal display element which is provided with high efficiency and orientation control ability and has excellent image sticking characteristics, and a horizontal electric field drive type liquid crystal display element having the substrate.
  • an object of the present invention is to absorb a ionic impurity in the liquid crystal at the interface of the liquid crystal alignment film and to have a lateral voltage drive type liquid crystal element having an improved voltage holding ratio, and a liquid crystal alignment for the element. It is to provide a membrane.
