Embodiment Construction

[0088]Next, an aspect (hereinafter, embodiment) for carrying out the invention of the present application will be described.

[0089] figure 1 It is a perspective schematic diagram of the polarized light irradiation apparatus for photo-alignment which concerns on 1st Embodiment of this invention. figure 1 The illustrated polarized light irradiation device is a device for performing photo-alignment treatment on a plate-shaped workpiece W such as a liquid crystal substrate with a film, and includes a light irradiator 1 for irradiating the workpiece W with polarized light.

[0090] In this embodiment, the workpiece W has a rectangular shape. As described above, in light alignment, the deflection axis of polarized light needs to be oriented in the direction to be aligned with high precision. The orientation direction can be set arbitrarily, and is hereinafter referred to as setting the orientation direction. The set orientation direction is set based on the direction in which a...

Abstract

The invention provides a polarized light irradiation apparatus and method for photo-alignment, which is capable of detecting the direction of a polarization axis of irradiated polarized light in high precision and performing photo-alignment treatment in high quality in the aspect of direction precision. A workpiece (W) is arranged on an irradiation surface (R). When the workpiece (W) is irradiated by the polarized light by virtue of irradiating the irradiation surface (R) through a polarized element (121), a polarization direction detector (40) is arranged on the irradiation surface (R) and detects the direction of the polarization axis of the polarized light. A polarization analyzer arranged in the polarization direction detector (40) is located in advance by a polarization analyzer calibrator, and a rotary original point is at a specified angle with respect to the reference direction of the apparatus. Based on the polarization direction detected by the polarization direction detector (40), the deviation of the polarization axis can be obtained and by using a polarized element adjusting mechanism (7) to adjust the posture of the polarized element (121), the deviation can be eliminated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention of the present application relates to a technique for irradiating polarized light when performing photo-alignment. Background technique [0002] In recent years, when obtaining the alignment film for liquid crystal display elements and the alignment layer for viewing angle compensation films, the technique called photo-alignment which aligns by light irradiation is used gradually. Hereinafter, films and layers aligned by light irradiation are collectively referred to as photo-alignment films. In addition, "orientation" or "orientation processing" means giving directionality to some property of an object. [0003] Photo-alignment is performed by irradiating polarized light to the film for photo-alignment films (henceforth film material). The film material is made of resin such as polyimide, and polarized light polarized in a desired direction is irradiated to the film material. By irradiating polarized light of predetermined wavelength,...
