摘要:
A liquid crystal display using a hydrophobic material as the material of resinous columns to orient the molecules of the liquid crystal parallel to the substrates. A hydrophilic material can also be used as the material of resinous columns to orient the molecules of the liquid crystal vertical to the substrates. The liquid crystal molecules are oriented horizontally by making the surface tension of the orientation film greater than the surface tension of the resinous columns. The liquid crystal molecules are oriented vertically by making the surface tension of the orientation film smaller than the surface tension of the resinous columns. A mixture of a liquid crystal material and an uncured resin is placed in a liquid crystal cell. The uncured resin is precipitated (deposited) out of the mixture. The molecules of the liquid crystal material are oriented. Then, the uncured resin is cured. Thereafter, an aging step for reorienting the molecules of the liquid crystal material is carried out. This prevents disturbance of the orientation around the resinous columns and leads to an improvement in the voltage holding ratio.

摘要:
In a liquid crystal device using a ferroelectric liquid crystal, in the case that a liquid crystal material is injected in a space between a pair of substrates (at least one of the substrates having an alignment film), a liquid crystal mixture of a liquid crystal material and an uncured resin material having a hydrophilicity is injected in the space from an injection inlet formed between the substrates. By the above process, the uncured resin material is remained in the vicinity of the injection inlet, and the space is filled with the liquid crystal material. Subsequently, the resin material is cured to seal the injection inlet. Further, a space between a pair of the substrates is filled with a mixture of the liquid crystal material, the uncured resin material and spacer particles, the liquid crystal material is oriented, the uncured resin material is precipitated from the mixture and cured, and the liquid crystal material and the spacer particles are removed. Subsequently, the liquid crystal material (or a mixture of the liquid crystal material and the uncured resin material) is again injected in the space, the liquid crystal material is oriented, and the uncured resin material is precipitated to be cured.
