Flüssigkristallvorrichtung und Anzeigevorrichtung

摘要

A liquid crystal device is formed by applying an alignment film on at least one of a pair of substrates sandwiching a liquid crystal, preferably a chiral smectic liquid crystal. The alignment is formed by a dehydro-cyclization product of a polyamide acid which in turn is a reaction product of naphthalenetetracarboxylic acid or its derivative with a diamine or its derivative. The liquid crystal device provides a high contrast display, particularly by multiplexing drive, which is free from after-image because of quick responsiveness.
