专利说明:
Cyclohexanone derivative, nematic liquid crystal composition comprising the same, and liquid crystal display using the nematic liquid crystal composition The present invention relates to a cyclohexanone derivative, a nematic liquid crystal composition comprising the same, and a liquid crystal display device using the nematic liquid crystal composition, and more particularly, cyclohexanone, thereby including optical anisotropy (Δn) and driving voltage characteristics. The improvement relates to a nematic liquid crystal composition exhibiting a nematic liquid crystal phase in a wide temperature range and a liquid crystal display device using the nematic liquid crystal composition. The liquid crystal display device is small in size, light in weight and low in power consumption, and has the advantage that no harmful electromagnetic waves are emitted. Therefore, the liquid crystal display device is widely used from the small display part of the electronic calculator to the notebook computer. The performance of the liquid crystal display device generally depends very much on the physical and electro-optical properties of the liquid crystal mixture. Therefore, the composition of the liquid crystal mixture should be optimized using liquid crystal compounds having certain physical properties so as to obtain the desired electro-optic behavior. Liquid crystal compounds generally require chemical and thermal stability and stability to electric fields. In addition, the liquid crystal compound should have low viscosity, short addressing time, low threshold voltage and high contrast. It should also have a suitable mesophase, eg nematic mesophase or cholesteric mesophase at operating temperature. As a practical liquid crystal material, it is common to use a mixture containing a plurality of liquid crystal components. Therefore, the liquid crystal components should be easily mixed with each other, and characteristics such as electrical conductivity, dielectric anisotropy, and optical anisotropy may also be used for cell types and applications. It must meet certain conditions. For example, the liquid crystal for twisted nematic cells should have a positive value of dielectric anisotropy (Δε) and a small value of electrical conductivity. On the other hand, nematic liquid crystal display devices are widely used because they have a wide range of uses and various display parameters and addressing schemes. Due to this, there is a growing demand for nematic liquid crystal compositions having a wide range of physical properties, and specific examples of liquid crystal compounds constituting such nematic liquid crystal compositions are disclosed in US Pat.
