Abstract
Description
Liquid crystal composition and display panel
[0001] This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202411506354.3, filed with the Chinese Patent Office on October 25, 2024, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field
[0002] This application relates to the field of display technology, and in particular to a liquid crystal composition and display panel. Background Technology
[0003] Liquid crystal materials are widely used in various display devices such as mobile phones, televisions, and computers. In thin-film transistor liquid crystal displays (TFT-LCDs), liquid crystals act as "light valves," controlling the amount of backlight transmitted to adjust the brightness of the display device.
[0004] Traditional Vertical Alignment (VA) liquid crystal display panels consist of a TFT substrate, a color filter (CF) substrate, a polyimide (PI) alignment layer sandwiched between the two substrates, and a liquid crystal composition. The liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal composition achieve vertical alignment through the PI alignment layer. When the applied voltage is 0V, the long axis of the liquid crystal molecules in a VA mode display is perpendicular to the glass substrate. Natural light, after passing through the polarizer on the TFT substrate side, becomes linearly polarized. At this point, its polarization state and direction cannot be changed by the liquid crystal molecules, and thus it is absorbed by the polarizer on the CF substrate side. In other words, incident light perpendicular to the glass substrate cannot pass through, resulting in a dark display effect. Therefore, VA mode display devices typically exhibit negative dielectric anisotropy (Δε) and high contrast.
[0005] However, the transmittance of LCD panels still needs to be improved. Technical solutions
[0006] This application provides a liquid crystal composition and a display panel that enables liquid crystal molecules to deflect horizontally, achieving a horizontal spiral deflection, thereby improving the transmittance of the display panel.

[0090] It should be noted that the liquid crystal composition provided in the embodiments of this application may include at least one of the first self-aligning additive and the second self-aligning additive.
[0091] In some embodiments, the chiral agent has a mass percentage in the liquid crystal composition ranging from 0.01% to 2.0%, for example, the chiral agent has a mass percentage in the liquid crystal composition of 0.01%, 0.05%, 0.1%, 0.15%, or 0.2%; the polymeric monomer has a mass percentage in the liquid crystal composition ranging from 0.01% to 2.0%, for example, the polymeric monomer has a mass percentage in the liquid crystal composition of 0.01%, 0.05%, 0.1%, 0.15%, or 0.2%; the first self-aligning additive has a mass percentage in the liquid crystal composition ranging from 0.1% to 1.5%, for example, the first self-aligning additive has a mass percentage in the liquid crystal composition of 0.01%, 0.05%, 0.1%, or 0.15%; and the second self-aligning additive has a mass percentage in the liquid crystal composition ranging from 0.1% to 1.5%, for example, the second self-aligning additive has a mass percentage in the liquid crystal composition of 0.01%, 0.05%, 0.1%, or 0.15%.
[0092] It is understood that the remaining components in the liquid crystal composition may be the liquid crystal monomers.
[0093] In some embodiments, the liquid crystal composition provided in this application can be used to prepare a vertically aligned (VA) liquid crystal display panel. Because a chiral agent is added to the liquid crystal composition, it provides chiral centers. Under voltage, the liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal layer formed by the liquid crystal composition can undergo a horizontal helical deflection, which can compensate for light leakage at the electrode gaps in the display panel in VA mode. This results in the liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal layer prepared by the liquid crystal composition provided in this application having both vertical deflection and horizontal rotation, thereby enabling the display panel with this liquid crystal layer to possess both the high contrast characteristics of a VA-type display panel and the high transmittance characteristics of a TN-type display panel, effectively improving the transmittance of the display panel prepared by the liquid crystal composition provided in this application.

[0116] As can be seen from Tables 1 to 5 above, chiral agents were added to the liquid crystal composition in Examples 1 to 4, and the transmittance Tr obtained in Examples 1 to 4 was greater than that in the comparative example. This indicates that by adding chiral agents to the liquid crystal composition, the transmittance of the display panel made from the liquid crystal composition can be effectively increased. In addition, in Examples 1 to 4, since self-aligning additives were added to the liquid crystal composition, the self-aligning additives can polymerize to form an alignment layer during the process, which can reduce the original alignment film process, save process steps, and reduce process costs.
[0117] In addition, referring to Figures 1, 2 and 3, this application embodiment also provides a display panel, which includes a first substrate 11, a second substrate 12 and a liquid crystal layer 20.
[0118] The first substrate 11 and the second substrate 12 are disposed opposite to each other, and the liquid crystal layer 20 is disposed between the first substrate 11 and the second substrate 12. The liquid crystal layer 20 is made from the liquid crystal monomer and the chiral agent in the liquid crystal composition described in the above embodiments.
[0119] In some embodiments, the display panel may further include a first alignment layer 31 disposed on the side of the first substrate 11 near the liquid crystal layer 20 and a second alignment layer 32 disposed on the side of the second substrate 12 near the liquid crystal layer 20, wherein the liquid crystal layer 20 is located between the first alignment layer 31 and the second alignment layer 32; the first alignment layer 31 and the second alignment layer 32 may be obtained by polymerization of self-aligning additives in the liquid crystal composition described in the above embodiments.
[0120] In some embodiments, the liquid crystal layer 20 includes a plurality of liquid crystal molecules 21. The liquid crystal composition provided in this application embodiment can be used to prepare a vertical alignment (VA) liquid crystal display panel. Therefore, the initial alignment direction provided by the first alignment layer 31 and the second alignment layer 32 for the liquid crystal molecules 21 is a direction perpendicular to the first substrate 11 and the second substrate 12.
[0121] In some embodiments, the display panel can switch between a first mode and a second mode. When the display panel is configured in the first mode, the liquid crystal layer 20 includes a plurality of liquid crystal arrangement groups 210, each liquid crystal arrangement group 210 including a plurality of liquid crystal molecules 21 arranged along the direction of the first substrate 11 close to the second substrate 12. The orthographic projections of two adjacent liquid crystal molecules 21 in the liquid crystal arrangement group 210 on the first substrate 11 intersect each other.
[0122] When the display panel is configured in the second mode, the liquid crystal molecules 21 can be arranged in a direction perpendicular to the first substrate 11 or the second substrate 12, or the liquid crystal molecules 21 can be arranged in a direction biased towards the first substrate 11 or the second substrate 12.
[0123] As described above, since a chiral agent is added to the liquid crystal composition provided in this application embodiment, a chiral center can be provided to the liquid crystal composition. Under the action of voltage, the liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal layer formed by the liquid crystal composition can generate a horizontal spiral deflection, which can compensate for light leakage at the electrode gap of the display panel in VA mode. This results in the liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal layer made by the liquid crystal composition provided in this application embodiment having both vertical deflection and horizontal rotation, thereby enabling the display panel with this liquid crystal layer to have both the high contrast characteristics of a VA type display panel and the high transmittance characteristics of a TN type display panel, effectively improving the transmittance of the display panel made by the liquid crystal composition provided in this application embodiment.
