By suitably preparing the liquid crystal, multi-micro-domains are formed in the liquid crystal. By virtue of the multi-micro-domains, the contrast ratio and the response speed are significantly improved.
摘要:
An improved liquid crystal optical device utilizing a ferroelectric liquid crystal and a driving method for the same are described. A ferroelectric liquid crystal material disposed between a pair of substrates in the optical device has a coefficient of viscosity of 5000 cps to 30000 cps and a negative dielectric anisotropy at operational temperatures, e.g. between 10.degree. C. and 40.degree. C. The liquid crystal consists of a number of layers normal to the substrates. The constituent layer in turn consists of liquid crystal molecules parallel to the substrates. Misalignment of the molecules yields bends in the layered structure which degrades the contrast ratio. When given alternating electric fields, the molecules are subjected to an electric torque which exerts thereon in order to force the molecules parallel to the substrate by virtue of the negative dielectric anisotropy so that the bends can be removed.

A liquid crystal display of the chiral smectic type is caused to have grey scales, by applying a voltage of an intermediate level to the liquid crystal. Within each picture element of the display, there are a number of domains of the liquid crystal layer, some being transparent while the other being opaque rendering grey tone to the picture element.

An optoelectronic panel is disclosed wherein the liquid crystal device and the photo detecting device are formed on a common transparent substrate. The liquid crystal display device includes at least one liquid crystal element which is supplied with a drive signal via a non-single-crystal semiconductor diode serving as a non-linear element and a photo diode of the same structure as the non-single-crystal semiconductor diode serving as the non-linear element of the liquid crystal display device. The liquid crystal display device and the photo detecting device are disposed side by side on the transparent substrate. The liquid crystal element, the non-linear element, the non-single-crystal element and the non-single-crystal semiconductor diode, as the non-linear element, of the liquid crystal display device are formed adjacent one another on the transparent substrate. The one electrode of the liquid crystal element and the one electrode of the non-single-crystal semiconductor diode, serving as the photo diode are both formed on the transparent substrate and are transparent. The one electrode of the non-single-crystal semiconductor diode serving as the non-linear element is also formed on the transparent first substrate but is nontransparent.

The present invention provides a nonlinear semiconductor element which has a V-I characteristic of excellent origin symmetry and a liquid crystal display panel which employs such nonlinear semiconductor element. The nonlinear semiconductor has an n-i-n, n-i-p-i-n, or p-i-n-i-p type structure. The i-type semiconductor layer is intentionally doped with boron, which acts to make the i-type semiconductor layer more intrinsic.
