Liquid Crystal Display Alignment Inducing Layer Domain Control

The invention extracts and removes the domain division portions (fine slits) from the field generating electrodes. Instead of using physical slits to create multiple domains, the patent employs an alignment inducing layer with specific compounds that can pretilt liquid crystals in different directions without requiring any physical divisions in the electrode structure, thereby eliminating luminance loss and texture defects while maintaining wide viewing angles

The invention introduces an alignment inducing layer containing specific compounds (represented by formulas A1 and B1) as an intermediary between the field generating electrodes and the liquid crystal layer. This intermediary layer is responsible for creating the pretilt and domain structure, replacing the need for physical domain division portions in the electrodes, thus achieving multiple domains without compromising luminance or causing texture defects

The invention segments the liquid crystal layer into multiple domains within each pixel, where each domain has liquid crystals pretilted in different directions. This segmentation is achieved through the alignment inducing layer with specific compounds rather than physical electrode divisions, allowing the LCD to achieve both fast response speed (through pretilt) and wide viewing angle (through multiple domains with different pretilt directions)

The invention applies different pretilt directions to different local regions (domains) within each pixel. The alignment inducing layer creates spatially varying pretilt characteristics, with each domain having locally optimized pretilt direction, enabling both fast response speed and wide viewing angle characteristics to coexist
