  • Tree-ring types liquid crystalline compounds having fluoro and isothiocyanate substituent[1] were synthesized and their physical properties were measured to evaluate the applications to TFT-LCD TV. All synthesized compounds were showed remarkably high Tni point. Birefringence(${\triangle}n$) and dielectric anisotropy(${\triangle}{\varepsilon}$) were higher than fluoro analogues and isothiocyanate substituted bicyclohexyl-phenyl compounds.

  • Computational calculations are now successfully introduced to design liquid crystal molecules for uses in modern active-matrix displays. These material technologies are practically applied to develop novel compounds, enabling formulation of advanced liquid crystal mixtures together with a newly developed mixture purification method. Typical examples of these liquid crystal mixtures are introduced for modern displays in various applications.

  • Three ring type liquid crystalline compounds having 4-alklycyclohexyl group, 1,2-difluorobenzene and phenylisothiocyanate moieties as main skeleton were designed to have negative dielectricity. However, the compounds with 2,3,2'-trifluoro-3'-isothiocyanated biphenylcyclohexane core did not exhibit the nematic liquid crystalline phase because of two conformers by interaction of isothiocyanate and adjacent fluorine atoms. Also, 4-alkyl-2,2',3'-trifluoro-3-isothiocyanated biphenylcyclohexane core was designed expecting to have uniform conformers of isothiocyanate group. In the course of developing polyimides for VA mode LCD, we synthesized alkyl-3,5-diaminobenzene efficiently with various length of alkyl chains from commercially available di-t-butyl malonate and 3,5-dinitrobenzoyl chloride as starting material.

  • Three-ring types liquid crystalline compounds having fluoro and isothiocyanate substituent were synthesized and their physical and electro-optical properties were measured to evaluate the applications to active matrix VA liquid crystal displays. The tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0) catalyzed cross coupling of aryl boronic acids with aryl halides is used to prepare trans-4'-Alkoxy-2,3-difluoro-3'-isothiocyanato-4-(4-alkylcyclohexyl}-biphenyl series. The synthesized compounds showed the nematic liquid crystalline phase and the negative dielectric anisotropy. The prepared mixtures showed faster response time and lower threshold voltage than their host mixture.

  • The synthetic route and physical properties for three-ring derivatives, trans-2,3,2',3'-tetrafluoro-4-alkyl-4'-(4-alkyl-cyclohexyl)-biphenyl and 4-alkyl-cyclohexane carboxylic acid 2,3,2',3',4'-pentafluoro-biphenyl-4-yl ester are presented. They exhibit broad range nematic phases exceeding 30K and low viscosity of nematic liquid crystal mixtures containing these materials. Their viscosity is compared with that of homologues with a lateral isothiocyanate group and show large negative dielectric anisotropies. The threshold voltage $V_{th}$ was low enough to be operated at a driving voltage of 5V. Our novel LC compounds are suitable materials for the improvement of dielectric anisotropy of vertical align liquid crystal displays (VA-LDCs).

  • The infrared spectra were determined to discover the characteristics and properties of poff-, PV-, and cc-samples, and studied influence on the formation of mesophase or liquid crystal. The experimental results were as follows; a) Samples with long aliphatic side chain appear cracking texture on temperature forming liquid crystal. b) The fine isotropic microstructure appears in a heterogeneous material containing sulfur, 7.18 w%. c) In the size of molecular weight the lighter than 500 form liquid crystal. d) When poff-sample was treated at $400^{\circ}C$ aliphatic hydrocabon compounds decrease, presented well-oriented bulk liquid crystal.

  • Several liquid crystalline monomers were synthesized and characterized to utilize as new matrix materials of liquid crystal/polymer composite films for display application. Liquid crystalline compounds which have azo group as center link, cyano group at one of the terminal position in common and bromoalkyl(azo(n)), azidoalkyl(AZI(n)), aminoalkyl(ALC(n)) as the terminal group were synthesized and identified respectively by FT-lR, $^1H-NMR$ spectrometer and elemental analysis. All these compounds exhibited nematic liquid crystalline region in the certain temperature range as determined by DSC and polarized optical microscope. These liquid crystalline compounds also showed a typical even-odd effect in both $T_{KN}$ and $T_{NI}$ due to conformational change as the length of terminal alkyl chain, $-(CH_2)n-$. was varied.

  • In this study, cholesteryl 4-n-alkoxybenzoates (Chol-n), with alkyl groups used for controlling the temperature of transition to the liquid crystal phase, were synthesized, and the effects of the length of the alkyl groups on the physical properties of the liquid crystal compounds were investigated. The chemical structures and thermal and liquid crystalline properties of the synthesized compounds were investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy ($^1H$-NMR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and polarizing optical microscopy (POM). The synthesized compounds showed melting transition temperatures ($T_m$) in the range of $103^{\circ}C$ to $143^{\circ}C$ and all of the compounds except Chol-6 exhibited a wide liquid crystal phase temperature range of about $60^{\circ}C$ to $100^{\circ}C$. No correlation between the number of carbon atoms in the molecule and the thermal properties of the compounds was found. All of the synthesized compounds showed an enantiotropic cholesteric phase, which was accompanied by a chiral smectic phase in the compounds Chol-6, Chol-8, Chol-9, and Chol-10. All of the compounds exhibited thermochromism in the liquid crystal state, and their color changed from red to blue as the temperature was increased.

  • New liquid crystalline (biphenylcarbonyloxy)benzoates with an achiral swallow-tail derived from 3-alkoxy-2- (alkoxymethyl)-1-propanol [(ROCH2)2CHCH2OH, R = Me, Et, Pr, Bu] were prepared. These liquid crystals exhibited the phase sequence (I-SmA-SmCalt-(SmCX)-Cr) and showed antiferroelectric-like Smectic C phase (SmCalt) at temperature lower, and temperature range broader than do the compounds containing a branched alkyl group as a swallow-tail. The temperature ranges of antiferroelectric phase were found to be 30-90 oC and crystallization temperatures were 4-60 oC. The binary mixture of an achiral swallow-tailed liquid crystal and a chiral antiferroelectric liquid crystal, (S)-MHPOBC showed antiferroelectric smectic C phase at temperature much lower than the single chiral antiferroelectric liquid crystal does.
