Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method of reducing ODF mura in liquid crystal (LC) displays of the polymer sustained alignment (PSA) type and to PSA LC displays made by this method.

Claim (Index 12):
A method of manufacturing an LCD of the PSA mode, comprising the following steps\n a) dispensing an array of droplets ( 2 ) of an LC medium comprising components A) and B) on a first substrate ( 1 ), a polymerisable component A) comprising from 0.005 to 0.05% of a first polymerisable compound and from 0.1 to 1.0% of a second polymerisable compound, wherein the first polymerisable compound has faster polymerisation speed than the second polymerisable compound, the first polymerisable compound is selected from formulae F1-F6, and the second polymerisable compound is selected from formulae S1-S3, and a liquid-crystalline component B), comprising one or more mesogenic or liquid-crystalline compounds in which the individual radicals, independently of each other and on each occurrence identically or differently, have the following meanings P a polymerisable group, Sp a spacer group or a single bond, Sp\u2032 a spacer group, L F, Cl, CN or straight-chain or branched, optionally mono- or poly-fluorinated alkyl, alkoxy, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkylcarbonyl, alkoxycarbonyl, alkylcarbonyloxy or alkoxycarbonyloxy having 1 to 12 C atoms, preferably F, R a , R b  -Sp-P, -Sp\u2032(P) 2 , H or one of the meanings given for L, r 0, 1, 2, 3 or 4, s 0, 1, 2 or 3, t 0, 1 or 2; b) providing a second substrate ( 4 ) on top of the surface of the first substrate ( 1 ) that is covered by the LC medium, preferably under vacuum condition, causing the droplets ( 2 ) of the LC medium to spread and form a continuous layer between the first substrate ( 1 ) and the second substrate ( 4 ), c) exposing the LC medium to UV radiation that causes photopolymerisation of the polymerisable compounds of component A).
