Problems solved by technology

[0019] In this way, attempts are being made to solve the problem of poor display accompanying the alignment of liquid crystal molecules in PSA display elements having useful display properties (contrast, response speed) by optimizing polymeric compounds. On the other hand, depending on the composition of PSA display elements The components of the liquid crystal composition, there are components that are not suitable for PSA display elements
In particular, a liquid crystal composition containing a liquid crystal material having an alkenyl group effective for lowering the viscosity is effective for reducing the response speed of a VA-type display element, but there is a new problem related to orientation control: when used as a PSA-type display After polymerizing the polymerizable compound in the device manufacturing process, it hinders the pretilt angle of the liquid crystal molecules
When an appropriate pre-tilt angle cannot be given to the liquid crystal molecules, the movement direction of the liquid crystal molecules during driving cannot be specified, and the liquid crystal molecules will not tilt in a certain direction, causing problems such as lower contrast or slower response speed.
[0020] In addition, Patent Document 6 discloses that the response speed of the vertical liquid crystal cell can be improved by using a liquid crystal material with a large index shown in (Formula 1), but it cannot be said to be sufficient.

Abstract

 The present invention pertains to a nematic liquid crystal composition having negative dielectric anisotropy (Δε), containing a polymerizable compound, and useful as a liquid crystal display material, and pertains to a liquid crystal display element in which the nematic liquid crystal composition is used. This liquid crystal composition is obtained by polymerizing a polymerizable compound without inhibiting the formation of a pretilt angle in liquid crystal molecules by irradiation with ultraviolet rays in order to produce an element, and can provide a fast-response PSA-type display element in which the pretilt angle is adequately imparted thereby, satisfactory orientation stability is obtained, display defects are absent or inhibited, and high display quality is obtained. A liquid crystal display element in which this liquid crystal composition is used can serve as a liquid crystal display element for active matrix driving, and can be applied to PSVA-mode liquid crystal display elements.
