VI. Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a liquid crystal display manufacturing method, and more particularly to a liquid crystal display substrate alignment processing method. [Prior Art] In the liquid crystal display process, two substrates are generally joined by a sealing material* and a liquid crystal (LC) material is injected into a small space between the two substrates. Next, polarizing films are attached to the outside of each of the substrates, and a driving electronic printed circuit board (PCB) is attached. Finally, the liquid crystal display is completed by adding a backlight unit. An alignment film is disposed on the liquid crystal display substrate to uniformly align the liquid crystal molecules between the two substrates. The step of forming an alignment film generally comprises coating a polyimide PI layer, pre-baking the poly-branched amine layer, heating and removing the solvent in the polyamidamine layer, and then solidifying the polyamidamine layer to make it sub- Deuteration forms a polymer material, and a polyimide layer. Among them, the conventional method of aligning the polyamidamine layer is rubbing, brushing the alignment film with a fleece cloth, or photo aligning with a linearly polarized UV light alignment film. However, the brushing process produces residual dust which requires cleaning equipment to be cleaned, thereby increasing process steps and costs. In addition, other undesired dents or scratches may occur during friction to reduce the yield, and electrostatic problems caused by friction may also cause damage to the circuit on the substrate. In addition, the conventional photo-alignment technique irradiates the alignment film with UV light of a specific polarization direction (for example, a direction of 45 degrees from the y-axis), so that the alignment film can perform a direction-selective photochemical reaction (only relevant to the y-axis direction). The photochemical reaction), in turn, causes the alignment film molecules to have a specific alignment direction, so that they have a film molecular solidification rate of 201017296 of less than or equal to 50%. In the region where the UV light is aligned in a specific polarization direction, the absorption film of the alignment film in the specific polarization direction (e.g., 45 degrees and 135 degrees in Fig. 6) has a reduced ability to absorb UV light. As shown in Fig. 6 (the vertical axis represents the absorption capacity of the alignment film, and the horizontal axis represents the polarization direction of the linearly polarized light that illuminates the alignment film with the y-axis angle). Furthermore, in the conventional optical alignment technique, if the alignment film is to have a plurality of alignment directions, it is necessary to use a photomask and expose the alignment films from different directions, so that the φ process is quite complicated. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, the present invention is directed to a novel liquid crystal display substrate alignment processing method which can overcome or ameliorate the problems of the aforementioned prior art. The liquid crystal display substrate alignment processing method according to the present invention mainly comprises forming an alignment film on a substrate, the alignment film comprising a plurality of solid molecules; applying an electric field to the substrate to rotate the solid molecules; and curing The curable molecules cure the curable molecules in a first direction. Compared with the conventional brushing treatment, the alignment treatment method of the present invention does not generate static electricity, and does not cause surface dents or scratches, thereby greatly increasing product yield; further, the alignment treatment method of the present invention does not Residual dust is generated, so the washing step can be omitted, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost. Compared with the conventional photo-alignment technology, the present invention utilizes electric field alignment to cure the alignment film material by UV light, so that the curing ratio can be greater than 50%, and even closer to ι〇〇〇/0, Because the invention utilizes electric field alignment, and the function of UV light only cures the alignment film material and the UV light is not 201017296. With a specific polarization direction, the alignment film molecules also have no directional selective polymerization, so when the alignment film completes the electric field alignment, The second uv light of different polarization states is given, #· and the difference of the UV light absorption spectrum of the two exposures is compared, and the absorption amount corresponding to the light of the polarization direction of the second UV is substantially equal. The present invention further provides a method for fabricating a liquid crystal display, which comprises: forming a first alignment film on a first substrate, the alignment film comprising a plurality of curable molecules; applying an electric field to the first first alignment film The electric field rotates the curable molecules; curing the curable molecules on the first substrate to solidify the curable molecules in a first direction; forming an alignment film on a second substrate, the alignment The film comprises a plurality of curable molecules; applying an electric field to the second substrate to rotate the curable molecules; and curing the plurality of curable molecules on the second substrate to cause the curable molecules to follow a second direction Curing; bonding the first substrate to the second substrate after performing the curing step; and forming a liquid crystal layer interposed between the first substrate and the second substrate. When the foregoing method is used to fabricate a twisted nematic TN type liquid crystal display, the first direction is substantially perpendicular to the second direction. When the foregoing method is used to manufacture a 1PS (in-plane switch) type liquid crystal display, the first direction is substantially the same as the second direction. The present invention further provides a method for fabricating a liquid crystal display, comprising: forming a first alignment film on the first substrate; the first alignment film includes a plurality of curable molecules; forming a liquid crystal layer sandwiched between the first substrate And a second substrate between the liquid crystal layer comprising a plurality of liquid crystal molecules; applying an electric field to the liquid crystal layer and the first alignment film to rotate the liquid crystal molecules and the curable molecules; and curing the The curable molecules cure the curable molecules in a first direction. This method is suitable for manufacturing vertical alignment 201017296 (vertically aligned VA) type liquid crystal displays. In a specific embodiment of the present invention, at least one of the first substrate and the second substrate may be provided with orientation regulating means, and the liquid crystal molecules and the curable molecules are driven by the orientation adjusting member. Rotate to include a plurality of oblique directions. The aforementioned curing step can be achieved by a photocuring step or a thermal curing step.

Thus, in a particular embodiment, the curable molecules used to form the alignment film of the MVA liquid crystal display may comprise a curable side chain (eg, a side chain of formula (III)) and a vertical alignment side chain (eg, formula (IV) or The side chain of the formula (V)); at this time, the surface tension of the formed alignment film can be adjusted by adjusting the ratio between the vertical alignment side chain and the curable side chain in the curable molecule. 201017296 The conventional MVA liquid crystal display generally needs to set the azimuth adjustment member on the upper plate (CF plate) and the lower plate (TFT plate) to adjust the square of the liquid crystal layer; the vertical position, therefore, the alignment error should be considered when the upper and lower plates are paired. The problem. However, when the MVA liquid crystal display device is manufactured by the present invention, if the lower plate is a color filter on Array and the upper substrate is a non-patterned ITO substrate, the upper and lower plate pairs are There is no need to consider the problem of the alignment error. Therefore, the substrate on the MVA liquid crystal display of the present invention can use a low-cost sodium-alkali glass substrate. The present invention further provides a method for fabricating a liquid crystal display, comprising: forming an alignment film comprising a plurality of curable molecules on a substrate; applying an electric field to the alignment film, the electric field rotating the curable molecules; curing The curable molecules on the substrate solidify the curable molecules in one direction; the other substrate may be treated in the same manner to cure the curable molecules in a second direction; after performing the curing step Bonding the first substrate to the second substrate; and forming a liquid crystal layer interposed between the first substrate and the second substrate. When the rich method is used to fabricate a twisteci φ nematic TN type liquid crystal display, the first direction is substantially perpendicular to the second direction. When the method is used to manufacture an IPS (in-plane switch) type liquid crystal display, the first direction is substantially the same as the second direction. Referring to FIG. 10, the present invention further provides a method for fabricating a liquid crystal display, which comprises: forming an alignment film 130 including a plurality of curable molecules on an upper substrate 110 and a lower substrate 120, respectively; The substrate 110 is bonded; an electric field is applied to the alignment film 130, the electric field rotates the curable molecules; and the solid molecules on the substrate 11 and 12 are cured. Then, the bonded substrate and a 17201017296 liquid crystal dish filled with the liquid crystal composition are placed in a vacuum chamber, and the gap in the bonded substrate is in a vacuum state. Then, the filling port of the bonded substrate is directed toward the liquid crystal dish and is in contact with the liquid crystal composition, and then the vacuum is broken, so that the liquid crystal material is subjected to a capillary effect and the combined inside and outside of the bonded substrate. The pressure difference is gradually inhaled through the filling port. In addition, the substrate has a pixel electrode, and the halogen electrode has a plurality of slits as domain regulators for adjusting the orientation of the liquid crystal layer. When an electric field is applied to the substrate, the solidity points are rotated. 'The tilting of the curable molecules toward a plurality of directions, followed by curing of the curable molecules, causes the alignment film to have a multi-domain alignment. The aforementioned curing step can be achieved by a photocuring step (e.g., irradiation of ultraviolet light to the curable molecules) or a thermal curing step (e.g., heating the curable molecules). As shown in FIG. 3, when energy-curable curable molecules 132 are applied, two adjacent solid molecules having the same oblique direction react and cross-linked, as shown in FIG. The reaction may be a ring deuteration plus reaction, or as shown in Fig. 7, the molecule may also be a functional group polymerization reaction.

The vertical alignment film 130 may include a first polymer having a homeotropic alignment property, and the first polymer is polymerized from a monomer molecule having a curable portion, wherein the curable portion may be Is extended from the main chain of the first polymer or on the first polymer backbone; the curable portion may also be extended from the first polymer backbone or on the first polymer backbone Further, 18 201017296 . The first polymer described above may further comprise a monomer molecule having another curable moiety. The other curable moiety may be extended from the primary bond of the first polymer or at the first high On the main chain of the product. The vertical alignment film 130 may further include a first polymer having a vertical alignment capability and a second polymer, wherein the second polymer may also be formed by polymerizing a monomer molecule having a curable portion, wherein the The curable portion may be extended from the main chain of the second polymer or on the second polymer backbone; the curable portion may also be extended from the second polymer backbone by φ and located at the Further, the curable portion of the second polymer may be the same as or different from the curable portion of the first polymer.

As shown in Fig. 1, when substantially no electric field is applied, the vertical alignment film 130 25 201017296 • causes the liquid crystal molecules 140 to be substantially perpendicular to the first substrate 11 〇 and the second substrate 12 表面 • surface due to the curable molecules and the liquid crystal The intermolecular affinity has such that each of the fixable members will obey the oblique direction of the liquid crystal molecules adjacent thereto. When a predetermined voltage is applied, as shown in Fig. 2, the slit 112a of the pixel electrode 112 (electrode) An electric field (shown by a broken line in Fig. 2) is formed in the vicinity of the edge. The oblique electric field generated between the substrates determines the tilt direction of the liquid crystal molecules 140. In Fig. 2, the interlayer is placed. The orientation of the liquid crystal layer between the first substrate 110 and the second substrate 12 is divided into two different directions. Because of the affinity between the curable molecules and the liquid crystal molecules, each solidity is determined. The slanting direction of the adjacent liquid crystal molecules is obeyed, so the curable molecules in Fig. 2 can be divided into two groups having different tilt directions. The aforementioned curing step can be performed by a photocuring step (for example, irradiating ultraviolet light) Some of the curable molecules) or a thermal curing step (eg, heating the curable molecules) is achieved. After the energy is applied to cure the curable molecules 132, two adjacent curable molecules 132 having the same oblique direction react. Φ This cross-links (cross-1丨nked), as shown in Fig. 3, the reaction may be a cycloaddition reaction, or as shown in the seventh figure, the molecule may also be a functional group polymerization reaction. In one embodiment, the interconnected curable molecules 132 can align the alignment of the liquid crystal molecules 140 when no voltage is applied, thereby stabilizing the pretilt angle and alignment of the liquid crystal molecules 140. As shown in FIG. 4, the orientation of the liquid crystal The system is divided into two different directions, thereby obtaining a wide viewing angle. Compared with the conventional brushing treatment, the alignment treatment method of the present invention does not generate static electricity and does not cause surface dents or scratches. The product yield can be greatly increased by 26 201017296. In addition, the alignment treatment method of the present invention does not generate residual powder. The chips can therefore omit the cleaning step, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost. And compared with the conventional optical alignment technology, The invention utilizes electric field alignment to cure the alignment film material by UV light, so the curing ratio (匸(10) tons ratio) can be greater than 50%, and even approaches 100%, and the present invention utilizes electric field alignment, and the function of uv light Only the alignment film material is cured and the uv light does not have a specific polarization direction, and the alignment film molecules are also non-directionally polymerized. Therefore, when the alignment film completes the electric field alignment, the second uv light of different polarization states is given and compared twice. The exposed UV light absorbs the difference in the spectrum, and the amount of absorption corresponding to the light in the polarization direction of the second UV is substantially equal (see Fig. 5). Further, the aforementioned alignment film may be formed using the following composition, which mainly comprises a photo alignment material and a vertical alignment material. The light alignment material is provided with a structurable molecule. The vertical alignment material accounts for a weight percent i to a percentage of the composition 4 of the composition.

The photoalignment material (a polymer purchased from Rolic, model ROP-903 (having a formula (Y5) solid molecule)) is coated separately. Between a thin film transistor substrate (the pixel electrode has a plurality of slits (as shown in FIG. 8 , the slit U2a in the drawing • the width is 3.5 mm, the width of the transparent electrode 112 is also 3.5 mm, the slit 112 a and the transparent electrode 112 ) Both are inclined toward 45 degrees, and the width of the portion of the transparent electrode at the center cross is 8.5 to 1 mm) and a color filter substrate to form a vertical alignment film. After the vertical alignment film is baked to be thermally hardened, the liquid crystal composition is dropped onto one of the substrates, and then the two substrates are joined as a sealing material. A voltage is applied to the two substrates such that the orientation of the liquid crystal layer is aligned by the oblique electric field caused by the electrode slit 112a, and includes a plurality of oblique directions, and is tilted toward the center in the φ slit direction. Finally, the curable molecules are cured by ultraviolet light irradiation while applying voltage to both substrates. Example 2 The MVA liquid crystal display was manufactured by the jJAY 5) solid-breakable polymer (mixed with jijiji. Cangyouyou polyimide) to form a vertical alignment composition (mainly including the Rolic model r〇P903). A polymer (having a solid molecule of the formula (Y5)) and a polymer of a concentration of 2 to 4% by weight of Nissan model RN1937 (polyimine having a vertical alignment ability) are respectively coated on a thin film transistor The substrate (the pixel power 32 201017296 has a m-shaped slit) and a color filter substrate form a vertical alignment film. After the vertical alignment film is baked and thermally hardened, the two substrates are joined as a sealing material. Next, the liquid crystal composition is sealed in the two substrates, and a voltage is applied to the two substrates such that the orientation of the liquid crystal layer is aligned by the oblique electric field caused by the electrode slits to include a plurality of oblique directions. The curable molecule has an affinity with the liquid crystal molecules such that each of the curable molecules conforms to the oblique direction of the liquid crystal molecules adjacent thereto. Finally, the UV-curable solidifying molecule is applied while the voltage is applied to the two substrates. Φ When the reliability test is performed (that is, the liquid crystal display panel is partitioned to apply different voltages to display the black and white black and white lattice surface, after a period of time When the entire panel is fully applied with the same voltage, the theoretical gray scale should be displayed on the whole surface. However, the panel surface of Example 1 will display different gray scales, or bright or dark lines will appear, resulting in reliability. RA issue; this is because the alignment film of Example 1 is formed only of a polymer having a solid molecule, and thus the anchoring force is insufficient or the DC potential is liable to remain. In contrast, since Example 2 is formed of a polymer having a curable molecule with φ and a polyimine having a vertical alignment ability, the aforementioned RA issue can be improved. In detail, the higher the content of the vertical alignment ability polyamine (for example, RN1937), the better the reliability test result of the liquid crystal display panel formed (ROP903+4%RN1937> ROP903+3% RN1937> ROP903+2%) RN1937> ROP903) 〇Example 3 A light-aligning material was produced by using a polymer having a formula (Y5) polymerizable molecule as a MVA liquid crystal display (a polymer 33 purchased from Rolic, model ROP-903 201017296 (having a formula (Y5) The curable molecules are respectively coated on a thin film transistor substrate (the pixel electrode having a m-shaped slit (as shown in FIG. 9)) and a color filter substrate to form a vertical alignment film. After the vertical alignment film is baked to be thermally hardened, the two substrates are then joined as a sealing material. A voltage is applied to the two substrates such that the orientation of the molecules of the alignment film is aligned by the oblique electric field caused by the electrode slits and includes a plurality of oblique directions. Ultraviolet light is irradiated to cure the curable molecules while a voltage is applied to both substrates. Finally, after the bonded substrate is completed, the liquid crystal m filled with the liquid crystal composition of the present invention is placed in a vacuum chamber. At this time, the gap in the bonded substrate is in a vacuum state. Then, the filling port of the bonded substrate is directed toward the liquid crystal dish and is in contact with the liquid crystal composition, and then the vacuum is broken, so that the liquid crystal material is subjected to a capillary effect and the combined inside and outside of the bonded substrate.

Example 4 By using the formula XX5), the stalker can be used as a light-aligning material (a polymer purchased from Rolic, model R〇p_9〇3 (having a formula (Y5) solid molecule)) It is applied to a thin film transistor 1 (the pixel electrode has a m-shaped slit) to form a vertical alignment film. After baking the vertical alignment film to be thermally hardened, then applying a lightning pressure between the substrate coated with the photo-alignment material and another substrate, and applying an electric field to the substrate of the photo-alignment material to make the alignment The orientation of the film's curable eight is aligned by the oblique electric field caused by the slit of the electrode: an oblique direction. And UV irradiation is applied while applying a voltage. 34 201017296 ‘Solidity molecule. The substrate is then bonded to another substrate that is aligned to form a material. Finally, the combined substrate and a liquid crystal dish filled with the liquid crystal composition of the present invention are placed in a vacuum chamber, and at this time, the gap in the bonded substrate is in a vacuum state. Thereafter, the filling port of the bonded substrate is directed to the liquid crystal dish and is in contact with the liquid crystal composition, and then the vacuum is broken, so that the liquid crystal material is subjected to a capillary effect and a pressure between the inside and the outside of the bonded substrate.
