Abstract

PURPOSE:To securely inject liquid crystal into a large liquid crystal element which is thin in cell thickness by evacuating the liquid crystal element under a vacuum and covering the injection opening of the liquid crystal element completely with liquid crystal, and then injecting the liquid crystal while increasing the difference between the pressure in the liquid crystal element and outside pressure. CONSTITUTION:The liquid crystal element formed by injecting liquid crystal into between two substrates is evacuated under a vacuum to cover the liquid crystal element injection opening with the liquid crystal and then while the difference between the pressure in the liquid crystal element and outside pressure is increased, the liquid crystal is injected. Thus, the pressure difference is increased gradually, so the flowing-in speed of the liquid crystal in the liquid crystal element can be controlled to prevent an air bubble from being formed in the liquid crystal element, balance the injection of the liquid crystal into the element with the supply of the liquid crystal from the injection opening, and secure the injection, specially, even is the cell thickness is thin, thereby improving the quality of the liquid crystal element and the yield by the injection.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a liquid crystal device, and more particularly to a method for injecting liquid crystal.

Conventionally, the method of injecting liquid crystal between two substrates is to scatter spheres or cylindrical particles with a diameter approximately the same as the cell thickness of the desired liquid crystal element onto one substrate, then glue the two substrates together, and then inject the liquid crystal. Therefore, an empty cell is made with a partial notch (inlet), and in order to fill the empty cell with liquid crystal, the inside (outside) of the cell is evacuated, and the inlet is completely filled with liquid crystal. The liquid crystal was injected by covering the liquid crystal element and returning the pressure outside the liquid crystal element (outside air) to atmospheric pressure all at once.

However, in the conventional injection method described above, the pressure outside the liquid crystal element (outside air) is returned to atmospheric pressure at once, which creates a sudden and large pressure difference between the inside of the liquid crystal element and the outside air. The balance between the inflow and liquid crystal replenishment from the injection port is disrupted, causing liquid crystal breakage within the device, and eventually bubbles remain in the area where the liquid crystal breakage occurred.This problem becomes particularly severe as the cell thickness becomes thinner. .
