FERROELEKTRISCHE FLUESSIGKRISTALL-ZELLE.

摘要

Orientation control films are coated on a pair of transparent substrates on the side contiguous to the ferroelectric liquid crystal layer and rubbed for aligning molecules thereof. The films are made of a polyimide polymer prepared by ring closure by heating and dehydrating of a polyamic acid which is synthesized by condensing, for example, pyromellitic dianhydride with 4,4'-diaminoterphenyl. A contrast ratio of the ferroelectric liquid crystal element is improved while keeping a high response characteristic of the ferroelectric liquid crystal materials.
