Description

Liquid crystal display

The present invention relates to a liquid crystal display device.

Liquid crystal display devices are used in various electric appliances for home use, measuring instruments, automotive panels, word processors, electronic notebooks, printers, computers, televisions, etc., including clocks and calculators. Typical liquid crystal display methods include TN (twisted nematic), STN (super twisted nematic), DS (dynamic light scattering), GH (guest / host), and IPS (in-plane switching). Type, OCB (optical compensation birefringence) type, ECB (voltage controlled birefringence) type, VA (vertical alignment) type, CSH (color super homeotropic) type, FLC (ferroelectric liquid crystal), etc. . As a driving method, multiplex driving is generally used instead of conventional static driving, and the active matrix (AM) method driven by a TFT (thin film transistor), TFD (thin film diode) or the like has become mainstream recently. ing.

As shown in FIG. 1, a general color liquid crystal display device has a transparent electrode layer (a common electrode) between one alignment film of two substrates (1) each having an alignment film (4) and the substrate. 3a) and a color filter layer (2), a pixel electrode layer (3b) is provided between the other alignment film and the substrate, these substrates are arranged so that the alignment films face each other, and a liquid crystal layer ( 5) is sandwiched.
The color filter layer is composed of a color filter composed of a black matrix, a red colored layer (R), a green colored layer (G), a blue colored layer (B), and, if necessary, a yellow colored layer (Y). The
The liquid crystal material constituting the liquid crystal layer has been subjected to a high degree of management because impurities have a great influence on the electrical characteristics of the display device if the impurities remain in the material. In addition, regarding the material for forming the alignment film, it is already known that the alignment film directly affects the liquid crystal layer and the impurities remaining in the alignment film move to the liquid crystal layer, thereby affecting the electrical characteristics of the liquid crystal layer. The characteristics of the liquid crystal display device due to the impurities in the alignment film material are being studied.

On the other hand, the material such as the organic pigment used for the color filter layer is also assumed to have an influence on the liquid crystal layer due to impurities contained in the same manner as the alignment film material. However, since an alignment film and a transparent electrode are interposed between the color filter layer and the liquid crystal layer, it has been considered that the direct influence on the liquid crystal layer is significantly less than that of the alignment film material. However, the alignment film is usually only 0.1 μm or less in thickness, and the common electrode used on the color filter layer side for the transparent electrode is usually 0.5 μm or less even if the film thickness is increased to increase the conductivity. . Therefore, it cannot be said that the color filter layer and the liquid crystal layer are placed in a completely isolated environment, and the color filter layer is formed by impurities contained in the color filter layer through the alignment film and the transparent electrode. There is a possibility that display defects such as white spots due to a decrease in voltage holding ratio (VHR), an increase in ion density (ID), uneven alignment, and burn-in may occur. As a method of solving display defects caused by impurities contained in pigments constituting the color filter, the elution of impurities into the liquid crystal is controlled by using pigments whose ratio of the extract of ethyl formate is not more than a specific value. A method (Patent Document 1) and a method (Patent Document 2) for controlling the elution of impurities into a liquid crystal by specifying a pigment in a blue colored layer have been studied. However, these methods are not significantly different from simply reducing impurities in the pigment, and are insufficient as an improvement to solve display defects even in the current state of progress in pigment purification technology. Met.

On the other hand, paying attention to the relationship between the organic impurities contained in the color filter and the liquid crystal composition, the difficulty of dissolving the organic impurities in the liquid crystal layer is expressed by the hydrophobic parameter of the liquid crystal molecules contained in the liquid crystal layer. Because of the correlation between the parameter value and the hydrophobic parameter and the —OCF ₃ group at the end of the liquid crystal molecule, a liquid crystal compound having —OCF ₃ group at the end of the liquid crystal molecule is contained in a certain proportion or more. A method for producing a liquid crystal composition (Patent Document 3) is disclosed.

However, in the disclosure of the cited document as well, it is the essence of the invention to suppress the influence of impurities in the pigment on the liquid crystal layer, and the structure of the coloring material such as dyes and pigments used in the color filter and the structure of the liquid crystal material The direct relationship with the above has not been studied, and the problem of display defects of liquid crystal display devices that have been advanced has not been solved.

It is possible to adjust by adding an appropriate amount of the blue dye / pigment. It can also be adjusted by appropriately adjusting the particle size of the pigment.

The color filter can form a color filter pixel portion by a conventionally known method. A typical method for forming the pixel portion is a photolithography method, which applies and heats a photocurable composition to be described later on the surface of the transparent substrate for the color filter provided with the black matrix. After drying (pre-baking), pattern exposure is performed by irradiating ultraviolet rays through a photomask to cure the photo-curable compound at the location corresponding to the pixel portion, and then developing the unexposed portion with a developer. In this method, the non-pixel portion is removed and the pixel portion is fixed to the transparent substrate. In this method, a pixel portion made of a cured colored film of a photocurable composition is formed on a transparent substrate.

A photocurable composition to be described later is prepared for each pixel of other colors such as an R pixel, a G pixel, a B pixel, and a Y pixel as necessary. A color filter having colored pixel portions of pixels, G pixels, B pixels, and Y pixels can be manufactured.
Examples of a method for applying a photocurable composition described later on a transparent substrate such as glass include a spin coating method, a slit coating method, a roll coating method, and an ink jet method.
The drying conditions for the coating film of the photocurable composition applied to the transparent substrate are usually about 50 to 150 ° C. for about 1 to 15 minutes, although it varies depending on the type of each component, the blending ratio, and the like. Further, as the light used for photocuring the photocurable composition, it is preferable to use ultraviolet rays or visible light in the wavelength range of 200 to 500 nm. Various light sources that emit light in this wavelength range can be used.
Examples of the developing method include a liquid piling method, a dipping method, and a spray method. After exposure and development of the photocurable composition, the transparent substrate on which the necessary color pixel portion is formed is washed with water and dried. The color filter thus obtained is subjected to a heat treatment (post-baking) at 90 to 280 ° C. for a predetermined time by a heating device such as a hot plate or an oven, thereby removing volatile components in the colored coating film and simultaneously applying light. The unreacted photocurable compound remaining in the cured colored film of the curable composition is thermally cured to complete the color filter.

By using the color material for a color filter of the present invention with the liquid crystal composition of the present invention, the voltage holding ratio (VHR) of the liquid crystal layer is reduced and the ion density (ID) is prevented from being increased. It is possible to provide a liquid crystal display device that solves the problem of display defects such as baking.

As the method for producing the photocurable composition, the color filter dye and / or pigment composition of the present invention, an organic solvent and a dispersant are used as essential components, and these are mixed and stirred so as to be uniform.
