Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of liquid crystal displays. More specifically, it relates to a liquid crystal compound, a liquid crystal composition comprising the same, and a liquid crystal display device. Background Technology

[0002] Liquid crystal displays (LCDs), as the mainstream display technology, boast a mature industry chain and excellent cost-effectiveness. After more than half a century of development, LCD technology has achieved a high degree of standardization, with costs significantly lower than newer display technologies such as OLEDs, giving it a dominant position, especially in large-size applications. Furthermore, LCDs offer advantages such as low power consumption, long lifespan, and high stability. In recent years, the introduction of Mini LED backlighting technology has significantly improved the contrast and brightness of LCDs, enabling them to maintain their competitiveness in the high-end display market.

[0003] At the same time, the market's demands for the performance and quality of LCD displays are constantly increasing, especially in high-end specific application scenarios such as industrial equipment displays, aerospace and polar scientific research, and automotive display systems. Among these, industrial equipment displays and automotive display systems have received particularly prominent attention. These application scenarios place extremely stringent requirements on the reliability, environmental adaptability (such as wide temperature range and strong light), long-term stability, and key performance indicators (such as response speed, viewing angle consistency, and contrast ratio) of displays.

[0004] In achieving the aforementioned high-end display performance, liquid crystal monomers containing heterocyclic atoms have received increasing attention, such as thiophene, benzofuran, and benzothiophene monomers. These monomers, due to their low rotational viscosity, high K-value, and good solubility, give them a leading advantage in response speed for related high-end displays. However, in key processes of LCD manufacturing and in the environments where end products are used, liquid crystal monomers are sometimes inevitably exposed to prolonged UV light, such as UV polymerization in PSVA processes, UV disinfection in factories, and long-term exposure to UV-containing sunlight in outdoor and automotive electronic devices. This UV irradiation may cause deterioration of the heterocyclic liquid crystal monomer molecules, leading to significant changes in their K-value or dielectric Δε value. In IPS and FFS modes, the threshold voltage (driving voltage) of the liquid crystal is related to K... 11 The K-value is positively correlated with Δε (the ratio of the elastic constant to the dielectric anisotropy), while the K-value directly affects the response time, contrast ratio, and display uniformity of the liquid crystal. The K-value of a liquid crystal cell and K... 11 Unstable changes in the / Δε value after UV irradiation directly lead to the degradation of key display performance, such as increased response time, threshold voltage drift, decreased contrast, and worsened display uniformity, which is unacceptable. Therefore, it is necessary to develop the K value and K after UV irradiation. 11Heterocyclic liquid crystal monomers with small changes in / Δε value are particularly important.

[0005] On the other hand, industrial equipment in high-latitude regions or during cold seasons (such as weaponry and construction machinery) needs to maintain accurate information display in environments as cold as -30°C to ensure the real-time transmission of operational commands. In space missions and polar expeditions, display devices must withstand extreme low temperatures, such as spacecraft instruments or scientific data recording systems. These applications place stringent demands on the low-temperature response speed of liquid crystals. Automobiles may face temperatures as low as -30°C in northern winters, requiring dashboards and navigation screens to respond quickly to avoid driving safety hazards. At -30°C, the viscosity of traditional liquid crystal molecules increases significantly, leading to prolonged response times or even complete stagnation. Current heterocyclic liquid crystal molecules have achieved low-temperature response times of less than 300ms through the development of low-viscosity liquid crystal mixtures (rotational viscosity < 200 mPa·s) and optimization of driving waveforms (overdrive voltage technology), but this is still slower than OLED materials. Therefore, automotive and industrial control equipment place even higher demands on the low-temperature response of heterocyclic liquid crystal molecules. Summary of the Invention

[0006] Therefore, the object of the present invention is to provide a liquid crystal compound, a liquid crystal composition comprising the same, and a liquid crystal display device, to at least solve one of the aforementioned technical problems. The liquid crystal compound of the present invention has the advantages of small change in K value after UV irradiation and high K... 11 The liquid crystal composition containing this liquid crystal compound also exhibits advantages such as small change in K value and fast response speed at low temperatures; 11 The advantages of small / Δε value change and fast low-temperature response speed can be used to develop liquid crystal display devices with stable threshold voltage after UV exposure, stable contrast, and fast low-temperature response speed.
