摘要： According to the present invention, a ferroelectric liquid crystal display device is provided which includes a complex made of a ferroelectric liquid crystal material and a polymer material disposed between substrates attached to each other. The substrates each have at least an electrode film and an alignment film. Furthermore, the ferroelectric liquid crystal material has a chevron layer structure, and a bending direction of the chevron layer structure is identical with a direction of a pretilt angle of all molecules of the ferroelectric liquid crystal material located at interfaces between the substrates and the ferroelectric liquid crystal material.

摘要： A mixture of a ferroelectric or anti-ferroelectric liquid crystal material and a monomer having a single photopolymeric functional group is injected in the space between two electrode substrates while heat is applied. After cooling of the mixture it is irradiated with ultraviolet light at a temperature at which the liquid crystal material remains in the smectic phase so as to polymerise the monomer. Areas of liquid crystal material requiring different threshold voltages for switching are thereby produced. Alternatively such areas can be produced by changing the conditions applied to a mixture of liquid crystal material with a suitable dopant so as to cause separation of the dopant out of the liquid crystal material in order to provide a polarity of nucleation points for controlling domain formation within the liquid crystal material. Such control of domain formation can be used to provide greyscale in a liquid crystal device.

摘要： A liquid crystal display comprises glass cell walls 1 and 2 on which are formed alignment layers 3 and 4. The cell is filled with liquid crystal material, such as FLC material. At least one periodic alignment controlling layer (5,6) is disposed between a respective one of the alignment layers (3,4) and the liquid crystal material, thereby increasing resistance to mechanical damage.

摘要： A liquid crystal device is provided with a pair of substrates (12, 16) containing a liquid crystal material (22). A wall structure comprising, for example, a plurality of walls (14) is provided between the two substrates. The wall structure provides mechanical strength to the device and resistance to flow of liquid crystal material which can cause deterioration in the device performance. The walls may extend in two mutually different directions (Fig. 8, 40) to provide mechanical strength and resistance to flow in two directions while the device can still be readily filled. The device is particularly applicable to a ferroelectric liquid crystal device.
