Embodiment
In liquid crystal panel, liquid crystal molecule can not be arranged according to predetermined direction often completely, and the accuracy of orientation is not high.Find after deliberation, in the light alignment manufacture process of liquid crystal panel in the time that board carrying, laminating etc. operate owing to easily producing static in robotic arm activity, conveyer belt moving process, and liquid crystal molecule in liquid crystal panel can not be arranged according to the direction of expection under the interference of static, affect the accuracy of orientation.Therefore, can after processing at injection liquid crystal, eliminate static, to improve the accuracy rate of orientation.
The process flow diagram that is illustrated in figure 1 a kind of liquid crystal light alignment method that the specific embodiment of the invention provides, the method comprises the steps:
Step S201, as shown in Figure 2, provide first substrate 2 and second substrate 4, in the present embodiment, described first substrate 2 is thin-film transistor array base-plate (TFT Array Substrate), and described second substrate 4 is colored filter substrate (Color Filter Substrate).
Step S202 forms the first alignment film 21 on described first substrate 2, forms the second alignment film 41 on described second substrate 4.Described the first alignment film 21 and described the second alignment film 41 are light alignment film.In the present embodiment, described the first alignment film 21 and the second alignment film 41 are polyimide (Polyimide, PI) film.Described the first alignment film 21 comprises multiple the first side chains 211, described the second alignment film 41 comprises multiple the second side chains 411, thereby described the first side chain 211 and described the second side chain 411 are arranged adjacent with it liquid crystal molecule is arranged according to the direction identical with described the first side chain 211 and described the second side chain 411 along specific direction under the irradiation of orientation light.
Step S203, as shown in Figure 3, uses orientation light 5 to expose to the first alignment film 21 and the second alignment film 41.Particularly, described orientation light 5 is ultraviolet (Ultraviolet, UV) light.In the present embodiment, described orientation light 5 wavelength are no more than 400nm.Described orientation light 5 irradiates the first alignment film 21 and the second alignment film 41 with certain angle of inclination, and in described the first alignment film 21, in the first side chain 211 and described the second alignment film 41, the second side chain 411 collective under described orientation light 5 effects tilts to the angle identical with described orientation light 5 irradiating angles.
Step S204, as shown in Figure 4, carries out liquid crystal drip-injection after to be exposed.Particularly, liquid crystal drip-injection in described the second alignment film 41 surface and form a liquid crystal layer 3, is understandable that, liquid crystal also can instil in described the first alignment film 21 surfaces.Described liquid crystal layer 3 comprises that multiple liquid crystal molecules 31 and multiple form with doping are formed at the reactive monomer (Reactive Mesogen, RM) in liquid crystal layer 3, and described reactive monomer can polymerization under illumination effect and solidified to assist stable alignment.After completing, liquid crystal drip-injection first substrate 2 and second substrate 4 are carried out to pasting, the first alignment film 21 and second alignment film 41 of described second substrate 4 of described first substrate 2 are fitted face-to-face, thereby described liquid crystal layer 3 is located between described first substrate 2 and described second substrate 4.Clearer and more definite, described liquid crystal layer 3 is between described the first alignment film 21 and described the second alignment film 41.
Step S205, as shown in Figure 5, uses ultrasound wave melt crystal layer 3 to eliminate static.Particularly, by a ultrasonic unit 6, ultrasound wave is passed into described liquid crystal layer 3.The energy that utilizes the cavitation of ultrasound wave in liquid to produce heats up liquid crystal layer 3.Described the first alignment film 21 and described the second alignment film 41 are higher than uniform temperature, as 100 degrees Celsius, can there is reversible reaction described the first side chain 211 and described the second side chain 411 are reduced in time, but because liquid crystal melting temperature is conventionally in 70 degree left and right, there is needed temperature lower than described reversible reaction.Therefore, when liquid crystal temperature being controlled between liquid crystal melting temperature and the initial temperature of alignment film reversible reaction, as 70 degrees Celsius above and below 100 degrees Celsius, liquid crystal is molten into liquid by liquid crystal and does not affect the orientation of the first alignment film 21 and the second alignment film 41.Meanwhile, the static 33 of piling up on described first substrate 2 and second substrate 4 is removed from described liquid crystal layer 3 under hyperacoustic effect.Optimally, hyperacoustic frequency is no more than 5 megahertzes; In order to allow piled up static 33 reveal completely, continue ultrasound wave to pass into liquid crystal layer 3-10 minute.
Step S206, described liquid crystal is cooled to fusing point and again forms below liquid crystal, now because the static in described first substrate 2 and second substrate 4 is eliminated, liquid crystal molecule 31 proper alignment again under the effect of described the first side chain 211 and the second side chain 411.
As shown in Figure 6, reuse orientation light 5 described liquid crystal layer 3 is exposed, the reactive monomer in described liquid crystal layer 3 is polymerization curing under illumination effect, liquid crystal molecule 31 stable alignment in liquid crystal layer 3.
Be understandable that, can also comprise in the present embodiment the operation such as pre-treatment and sintering to the first alignment film 21 and the second alignment film 41, it is techniques well known, does not repeat them here.In the present invention, utilize ultrasound wave fusing liquid crystal to remove rapidly the static that affects LCD alignment, thereby can obtain stable LCD alignment.
Those skilled in the art will be appreciated that; above embodiment is only for the present invention is described; and be not used as limitation of the invention; as long as within connotation scope of the present invention, within the appropriate change that above embodiment is done and variation all drop on the scope of protection of present invention.
