<p>PURPOSE:To prevent a printing phenomenon and an after-image phenomenon from generating by providing a distribution film wherein liquid crystal molecules on the surface of a substrate are oriented at a 2-10 deg. tilt angle. CONSTITUTION:In an ON state, an electric field is applied between a transparent electrode 4 and a transparent electrode 5, so liquid crystal molecules 8a nearby the center of a liquid crystal layer 8 are almost perpendicular to the electrodes as usual. Liquid crystal molecules 8b nearby the substrate, on the other hand, are oriented almost in parallel to the electrodes, i.e. at a 2-10 deg. tilt angle to the electrodes under the influence of the orienting film 7. Consequently, even when an electric field which has the same intensity as before is applied from an electric conductor, the liquid crystal molecules 8c nearby the electric conductor 3 never enters a metastable state wherein they are at a different angle from the liquid crystal molecules 8b. No disclination is therefore generated. Consequently, generation of the printing phenomenon and after-image phenomenon can be prevented.</p> |
