Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of ferroelectric liquid crystal displays, and more specifically to liquid crystal compositions and liquid crystal display devices comprising compounds containing chiral groups. Background Technology

[0002] Nematic liquid crystals (LCS) are widely used in the display field due to their inherent advantages, such as in LCD TVs and computer monitors. However, as people's living standards continue to improve, LCS are becoming increasingly limited in applications requiring rapid response. For example, they cannot meet the demands of high-definition, high-resolution displays and large-capacity dynamic displays. In dynamic image displays, fast-moving images exhibit phenomena such as "trailing" and "ghosting," resulting in poor dynamic image display quality and severely impacting overall display quality. Therefore, developing liquid crystal devices with fast response speeds has become a top priority for liquid crystal researchers. Among the various liquid crystal phases, ferroelectric liquid crystals are the most noteworthy, but they have not yet reached the stage of industrial production. Ferroelectric liquid crystals possess advantages such as fast response speeds (tens to hundreds of microseconds, or even faster), low driving voltage, wide viewing angles, suitability for high-resolution displays, and photoelectric effects, nonlinear optical effects, and photorefractive effects, making them a promising liquid crystal material.

[0003] Ferroelectric liquid crystals were discovered in 1975. Meyer, considering symmetry, predicted that the smectic C phase, composed of chiral molecules, possessed ferroelectric properties. Meyer, in collaboration with Keller and others, synthesized the first ferroelectric liquid crystal material, directly proving the existence of ferroelectricity in liquid crystals, thus pioneering research into novel liquid crystal materials and devices. In 1980, Clark and Lagerwall proposed that placing ferroelectric liquid crystals between two glass substrates with a very small gap (less than 2 μm) results in a bistable molecular orientation, known as surface-stabilized ferroelectric liquid crystal (SSFLC).

[0004] The discovery of SSFLC propelled the research of ferroelectric liquid crystals into a new stage. Utilizing the bistable properties and fast response of SSFLC, optical switch arrays and spatial light modulators can be fabricated for multiplexing in fiber optic communication. Its birefringence and electrical tunability can be used to create tunable wavelength optical filters for wavelength division multiplexing in fiber optic communication; it can also be used to fabricate all-optical fiber polarizers. In 1988, Canon of Japan introduced the first surface-stabilized ferroelectric liquid crystal display (SSFLCD). With its fast response, low driving voltage, wide viewing angle, and high resolution, SSFLCD had broad application prospects and was once hailed as the most promising liquid crystal display of the 21st century. However, SSFLCD has not been widely adopted in practical applications, mainly due to difficulties in alignment, poor vibration resistance, and the inability to achieve continuous grayscale. To improve the alignment stability of SSFLCs, in 1992, Hikmet et al. of Philips proposed polymer-stabilized ferroelectric liquid crystals (PSFLCs). This involves introducing a polymer network to anchor the liquid crystal molecules in bulk, transforming the alignment of ferroelectric liquid crystals from the traditional surface anchoring mode to a combination of surface and bulk anchoring, thereby improving the vibration resistance of ferroelectric liquid crystal devices.

[0005] Besides ferroelectricity, another characteristic accompanying molecular chirality is the inherent helicity of molecules. The deformed helix ferroelectric (DHF) liquid crystal proposed by Beresnev et al. uses short-pitch ferroelectric liquid crystal materials to form a uniform helical structure between two parallel-aligned substrates. Photoelectric modulation is achieved by altering the distribution of ferroelectric liquid crystal molecules using an applied electric field. Because the DHF mode has continuously tunable grayscale, it has broad application prospects in the field of active-matrix-driving displays. The electrically suppressed helix (ESH) proposed by Chigrinov et al. has a high-contrast binary response and offers significant advantages in pulse-width modulated field-sequential color displays.

[0006] Based on the advantages of ferroelectric liquid crystal materials in terms of response speed, driving voltage, viewing angle, high resolution display, photoelectric effect, optical effect, and photorefractive effect, continuous improvement of ferroelectric liquid crystal materials to obtain ferroelectric liquid crystal materials with better performance has always been the goal pursued by the display field.

[0115] Another aspect of the present invention provides a liquid crystal display device comprising the ferroelectric liquid crystal composition described in the present invention.

[0116] The ferroelectric liquid crystal composition of the present invention has the advantages of high transmittance, high contrast, large phase transition range, small pitch, and high spontaneous polarization intensity. The display device containing the ferroelectric liquid crystal composition of the present invention has high bright state transmittance, low dark state transmittance, high contrast, strong spontaneous polarization intensity, and fast switching time.

[0117] The present invention will be described below with reference to specific embodiments. It should be noted that the following embodiments are examples of the present invention and are used only to illustrate the invention, not to limit it. Other combinations and various modifications within the scope of the present invention can be made without departing from its spirit or scope.

[0118] For ease of explanation, in the following embodiments, the group structures of the liquid crystal compounds are represented by the codes listed in Table 1:

[0119] Table 1. Group structure codes of liquid crystal compounds

[0120]

[0121]

[0122]

[0123] Take the following compound with the following structural formula as an example:

[0124]

[0125] If the structural formula is represented by the codes listed in Table 1, it can be expressed as: nCCGF, where n in the code represents the number of C atoms in the alkyl group at the left end. For example, if n is "3", it means that the alkyl group is -C3H7. In the code, C represents cyclohexyl, G represents 2-fluoro-1,4-phenylene, and F represents fluorine.

[0126] As the pitch (P0) increases, the Bragg diffraction effect intensifies, and the diffraction wavelength shifts from the short-wavelength region to the visible and infrared regions, thereby reducing the contrast of the application environment. When ferroelectric liquid crystal compositions are used in the visible light band with wavelengths of 300-800nm, the diffraction band should be controlled in the UV short-wavelength region, with P0 < 120nm; when used in the infrared band, P0 < 1000nm.

[0127] Bragg diffraction: 2dsinθ=nλ,λ max = Average refractive index * P0. Where d is the interplanar spacing, θ is the angle between the incident ray, the reflected ray and the reflecting crystal plane, λ is the wavelength, and n is the reflection order.

[0128] According to the ferroelectric liquid crystal transmittance formula: The penetration rate is maximized when θ = 45° and Δnd = λd = .

[0129] The abbreviated codes for the test items and the test conditions in the following examples are as follows:

[0130] θ: The angle of inclination of the cone relative to the helical axis.
