PURPOSE:To obtain an antiferroelectric liquid crystal compound which is suitable for high speed display applications and, when mixed with a smectic liquid crystal composition, can give an antiferroelectric composition, by using a specified compound. CONSTITUTION:A liquid crystal compound of formula l (wherein R<1> and R<2> are each an aliphatic group selected from CN, 4-20C alkyl, alkoxy, acyloxy, and alkoxycarbonyl, or a halogen-substituted aliphatic group; X<1> and X<2> are each a structural unit having a constitution of formulas II, III, IV, V, VI, etc., as its basic skeleton; Y<1> and Y<2> are each a group of formula VII or O; Z is a divalent aliphatic group with the principal chain having an odd number of carbon atoms of at least 3, provided that R<1>, R<2> or 2 contains at least one asymmetric carbon atom). This composition is antiferroelectric, and the physical properties, such as spontaneous polarization viscosity, spiral pitch, tilt angle, and liquid-crystal temperature range, can be adjusted over a wide range; therefore, it is suitable for high-speed display applications and, when mixed with a smectic liquid crystal composition, it can render the composition antiferroelectric.

Ferroelectric liquid crystal is a material that is attracting a lot of attention in this way, but it is #! In order to make bi-state stable switching possible when the cell is heated up, the cell must have an extremely thin film of about 2 μm, which poses great technical difficulties. It is also a well-known fact that they are prone to defects. Bi-state stable switching can add memory to the display, but depending on the usage situation, this memory can cause problems such as the image not disappearing even when the power is turned off, or dielectric breakdown occurring when the display is turned on for a long period of time. lead to shortcomings.

Recently, certain fluorine-containing low-molecular-weight ferroelectric liquid crystals have begun to attract attention as liquid crystals that overcome these drawbacks (Japan
eseJournal of Applied Ph
ysica 1989.28(7), L1265). It is thought that these liquid crystals have extremely large intramolecular dipole moments, causing the dipoles to swing antiparallel between molecules, which is why they exhibit antiferroelectricity. Three-state stable switching is realized because the antiferromagnetic-ferroelectric lightning transition occurs when an electric field is applied, which eliminates the drawbacks of the two-state stable switching of the previous law, and makes high-speed liquid crystal displays possible.71) It is.

Identification of the antiferroelectric phase (1) X-ray diffraction and CD spectra The four turns of X-ray diffraction observed after cooling the oriented sample of BuAz-3* prepared at 100°C show that the orientation axes align in the vertical direction. , on the other hand, the reflection of the layer appeared to be split left and right from the meridian. Furthermore, reflections indicating disordered filling of the layer are seen on the equator line, and this
It was found that it has a layered structure and a smectic C type structure in which mesogen is quilted between the layers. Chirality was confirmed by measuring the f*cD spectrum, and it was confirmed that BuAz-3'' had a xylsmectic C type liquid crystal phase.

(2) Reflection is a qutol In order to investigate the symmetry of this liquid crystal phase, a spectrometer was used on a sample that was sandwiched between two glass plates and abraded at 120°C to align it vertically, then cooled to room temperature. When we measured the reflection spectra when light was incident vertically and obliquely, we found that vertical incidence: 1? Only one selective reflection peak appeared in both the case of light and oblique incidence. In the case of xyl smectic C phase, two peaks, a half-pitch band and a full-pitch band, should appear in the case of oblique incidence.
This polymer is a ferroelectric liquid crystal, Xylsmectic C.
It was found that, unlike the cholesteric phase, it has the same symmetry as the cholesteric phase. In other words, this polyester is an antiferroelectric liquid crystal.
