TECHNICAL FIELD 
       [0001]    The present invention relates to a liquid crystal display apparatus. 
       BACKGROUND ART 
       [0002]    Liquid crystal display apparatuses have been widely used in clocks, electronic calculators, various home appliances, measuring equipment, panels for automobiles, word processors, electronic personal organizers, printers, computers, TVs, and the like. Common examples of liquid crystal display methods include a TN (twisted nematic) type, a STN (super-twisted nematic) type, a DS (dynamic light scattering) type, a GH (guest-host) type, an IPS (in-plane switching) type, an OCB (optically compensated birefringence) type, an ECB (electrically controlled birefringence) type, a VA (vertical alignment) type, a CSH (color super-homeotropic) type, and a FLC (ferroelectric liquid crystal). There has been a shift in the driving method used from a conventional static driving to a multiplex driving, which has been commonly employed. Simple-matrix liquid crystal displays and, recently, active-matrix (AM) liquid crystal displays, which are driven using a TFT (thin-film transistor), a TFD (thin-film diode), or the like, have been widely employed. 
         [0003]    As illustrated in  FIG. 1 , a common liquid crystal display apparatus includes two substrates ( 1 ) each including an alignment film ( 4 ); a transparent electrode layer ( 3   a ) serving as a common electrode and a color filter layer ( 2 ), which are interposed between one of the alignment film and the corresponding substrate; and a pixel electrode layer ( 3   b ) interposed between the other alignment film and the corresponding substrate. The two substrates are arranged so that the alignment films face each other, and a liquid crystal layer ( 5 ) is held therebetween. 
         [0004]    The color filter layer includes a color filter constituted by a black matrix, a red-colored layer (R), a green-colored layer (G), a blue-colored layer (B), and, as needed, a yellow-colored layer (Y). 
         [0005]    The amount of impurities contained in a liquid crystal material constituting the liquid crystal layer is strictly controlled because any impurities remaining in the liquid crystal material would greatly affect the electrical characteristics of the display apparatus. It is known that the material constituting the alignment film also affects the electrical characteristics of the liquid crystal layer because any impurities remaining in the alignment film, which is in direct contact with the liquid crystal layer, would migrate into the liquid crystal layer. Thus, the characteristics of the liquid crystal display apparatus due to impurities contained in a material of the alignment film is currently being studied. 
         [0006]    As well as a material of the alignment film, a material of the color filter layer, such as an organic pigment, is also considered to affect the liquid crystal layer due to impurities contained in the material of the color filter layer. The direct effect of a material of the color filter layer on the liquid crystal layer has been considered to be very small compared with the effect of a material of the alignment film since the alignment film and the transparent electrode are interposed between the color filter layer and the liquid crystal layer. However, the thickness of the alignment film is generally 0.1 μm or less, and the thickness of the transparent electrode serving as a common electrode disposed on the color-filter-layer side is generally 0.5 μm or less, even in the case where the thickness of the transparent electrode is increased in order to increase electrical conductivity. Therefore, it cannot be said that the color filter layer and the liquid crystal layer are in an environment where they are completely isolated from each other. Consequently, the impurities contained in the color filter layer, which migrate via an alignment film and a transparent electrode, may reduce the voltage holding ratio (VHR) of the liquid crystal layer and may increase the ion density (ID) in the liquid crystal layer, which results in faulty display such as white missing pixels, alignment inconsistencies, and burn-in. 
         [0007]    In order to address the faulty display caused by impurities contained in pigments constituting the color filter, a method of controlling elution of impurities into a liquid crystal by using a pigment such that the proportion of a substance extracted from the pigment with ethyl formate is set to be equal to or less than a specific value (PTL 1) and a method of controlling elution of impurities into a liquid crystal by specifying a pigment contained in a blue colored layer (PTL 2) have been studied. However, there is not a great difference between these methods and a method of simply reducing the amount of impurities contained in a pigment, and these methods provide unsatisfactory improvements in addressing the faulty display in the present situation in which progress has been made in purification techniques for pigments. 
         [0008]    On the other hand, focusing on the relationship between organic impurities contained in the color filter and the liquid crystal composition, a method in which the degree of difficulty in dissolving organic impurities in the liquid crystal layer is represented as a hydrophobicity parameter of liquid crystal molecules contained in the liquid crystal layer and the hydrophobicity parameter is controlled to be equal to or more than a specific value; and, on the basis of the correlation between the hydrophobicity parameter and a —OCF 3  group at the end of the liquid crystal molecule, a method in which the content of a liquid crystal compound having an —OCF 3  group at the end of the liquid crystal molecule in a liquid crystal composition is controlled to a specific value or more have been disclosed (PTL 3). However, the essence of the invention disclosed in the cited document is reducing the effect of impurities contained in a pigment on the liquid crystal layer, and there was no study on the direct relationship between the structure of a pigment used for producing a color filter and the structure of a liquid crystal material. 
         [0009]    It has been disclosed that voltage holding ratio (VHR) may be increased by using a pigment washed with deionized water until the specific electrical conductivity of the filtrate of the deionized water used for the washing treatment reaches 20 μS/cm or less. However, there is no description about the specific electrical conductivity of the pigment, and the voltage holding ratio was about 95% (PTL 4), which was insufficient to address the faulty display of liquid crystal display elements, which are becoming more advanced. 
         [0010]    It is known that the water-soluble content and the specific electrical conductivity of a pigment may affect the anticorrosive effect of an anticorrosive paint and ease of ejecting ink-jet ink (PTL 5 and PTL 6). However, it is not known how the combination of the water-soluble content and specific electrical conductivity of a pigment and the structure of a liquid crystal material constituting a liquid crystal layer affect faulty display of a liquid crystal display element. Thus, the issue of faulty display of liquid crystal display apparatuses, which are becoming more advanced, has not yet been addressed.

Specifically, the water-soluble content of a pigment can be calculated in accordance with JIS K5101-16-1 (Test methods for pigments-Part 16: Matter soluble in water-Section 1: Hot extraction method), that is, in the following manner: 
         [0102]    1. Into a 500-mL rigid beaker, 5.00 g of an accurately weighed pigment is charged. To the beaker, 200 mL of ion-exchange water (electrical conductivity: 5 μS/cm or less, pH: 7.0±1.0) is added. The ion-exchange water is added in small amounts at a time. After 5 mL of first-grade reagent methanol is added to the beaker to soak the pigment in the ion-exchange water to a sufficient degree, the remaining ion-exchange water is added to the beaker. The resulting liquid mixture is boiled for 5 minutes. 
         [0103]    2. The liquid mixture is cooled to room temperature, and transferred to a 250-mL graduated cylinder. To the graduated cylinder, the above-described ion-exchange water is added until the volume of the liquid mixture becomes 250 mL. The liquid mixture is vigorously stirred and then filtered through a filter paper No. 5C produced by ADVANTEC. 
         [0104]    3. Initially, about 50 mL of the filtrate is removed, and 100 mL of the remaining filtrate is weighed using a graduated cylinder and transferred to an evaporation pan of known mass. The filtrate adhering to the graduated cylinder is washed off with a small amount of ion-exchange water into the evaporation pan. 
         [0105]    4. The evaporation pan is placed in a water bath, and evaporation to dryness is performed. The evaporation pan is dried for 2 hours in a drying machine kept at 105° C. to 110° C. and subsequently charged into a desiccator. After the evaporation pan is left to cool, the mass of the evaporation pan is measured. Thus, the amount of substance that remained after evaporation is determined. 
         [0106]    5. The water-soluble content of the pigment is calculated using the following formula. 
         [0000]      Water-soluble content of the pigment(%)=Amount of substance remaining after evaporation(g)×2.5/Mass of the pigment(g)×100

Among halogenated metal phthalocyanine pigments having the same Y, which is described below, and the same m, which is the number of Y&#39;s, a pigment in which, among 16 X&#39;s of X 1i  to X 16i , the total number of chlorine atoms, bromine atoms, and iodine atoms is less than 8 appears blue. In the same manner, among pigments in which, among 16 X&#39;s of X 1i  to X 16i , the total number of chlorine atoms, bromine atoms, and iodine atoms is 8 or more, the greater the total number of chlorine atoms, bromine atoms, and iodine atoms, the higher the degree of yellow. Y bonded to the central metal M is a monovalent atomic group selected from the group consisting of a halogen atom that is any one of a fluorine atom, a chlorine atom, a bromine atom, and an iodine atom; an oxygen atom; a hydroxyl group; and a sulfonic group, and m represents the number of Y&#39;s bonded to the central metal M and is an integer of 0 to 2. 
         [0118]    The value of m is determined on the basis of the valence of the central metal M. When the central metal M is trivalent as is the case for Al, Sc, Ga, Y, and In, m=1. In this case, one group selected from the group consisting of a fluorine atom, a chlorine atom, a bromine atom, an iodine atom, a hydroxyl group, and a sulfonic group is bonded to the central metal. When the central metal M is tetravalent as is the case for Si, Ti, V, Ge, Zr, and Sn, m=2. In this case, one oxygen atom is bonded to the central metal, or two groups selected from the group consisting of a fluorine atom, a chlorine atom, a bromine atom, an iodine atom, a hydroxyl group, and a sulfonic group are bonded to the central metal. When the central metal M is divalent as is the case for Mg, Fe, Co, Ni, Zn, Cu, Zr, Sn, and Pb, Y is absent. 
         [0119]    In General Formula (PIG-1) shown above, the halogenated metal phthalocyanine pigments belonging to Group 2 are as follows. 
         [0120]    In the General Formula (PIG-1), X 1i  to X 16i  are the same as defined above, the central metal M represents a trivalent metal selected from the group consisting of Al, Sc, Ga, Y, and In, and m is 1. Y represents the following atomic group: 
         [0000]    
       
                 
         
             
             
         
       
     
         [0121]    In the chemical structure of the atomic group Y, the central metal M is the same as defined above, and X 17i  to X 32i  are the same as the above-described definition of X 1i  to X 16i  in General Formula (PIG-1). A represents a divalent atomic group selected from the group consisting of an oxygen atom, a sulfur atom, a sulfinyl (—SO—), and a sulfonyl (—SO 2 —). M of General Formula (PIG-1) and M of the atomic group Y are bonded to each other via the divalent atomic group A. 
         [0122]    In other words, the halogenated metal phthalocyanine pigments belonging to Group 2 are halogenated metal phthalocyanine dimers having a structural unit constituted by two halogenated metal phthalocyanine molecules bonded to each other via the divalent atomic group. 
         [0123]    Specific examples of the halogenated metal phthalocyanine pigments represented by General Formula (PIG-1) include (1) to (4) described below.

         [0131]    In General Formula (1), R 11j  to R 16j  may be identical or different. Thus, —NRR (RR represents any one combination of R 11j R 12j , R 13j R 14j , and R 15j R 16j ) group may be symmetrical or asymmetrical. 
         [0132]    When adjacent R&#39;s (R represents any one of R 11j  to R 16j ) are bonded to each other to form a ring, the ring may be formed by cross-linking of hetero atoms. Specific examples of such a ring include the following rings, which may be substituted:

         [0135]    When R 11j  to R 16j  represent an alkyl group or an aryl group, the alkyl group or the aryl group may further include an optional substituent. Examples of the optional substituent that can be included in the alkyl group or the aryl group include the following [Substituent Group Y].

         [0142]    The R pixel portion of the RGB three-color pixel portions preferably further includes, as a coloring material, at least one organic pigment selected from the group consisting of C.I. Pigment Red 177, C.I. Pigment Red 242, C.I. Pigment Red 166, C.I. Pigment Red 167, C.I. Pigment Red 179, C.I. Pigment Orange 38, C.I. Pigment Orange 71, C.I. Pigment Yellow 150, C.I. Pigment Yellow 215, C.I. Pigment Yellow 185, C.I. Pigment Yellow 138, and C.I. Pigment Yellow 139. 
         [0143]    The G pixel portion of the RGB three-color pixel portions preferably further includes, as a coloring material, at least one organic pigment selected from the group consisting of C.I. Pigment Yellow 150, C.I. Pigment Yellow 215, C.I. Pigment Yellow 185, and C.I. Pigment Yellow 138. 
         [0144]    The B pixel portion of the RGB three-color pixel portions preferably further includes, as a coloring material, at least one organic dye or pigment selected from the group consisting of C.I. Pigment Blue 1 and C.I. Pigment Violet 23. 
         [0145]    In the case where the color filter is constituted by a black matrix, RGB three-color pixel portions, and a Y pixel portion, the Y pixel portion preferably includes, as a coloring material, a pigment having a water-soluble content of 1.5% or less and/or a specific electrical conductivity of 150 μS/cm or less. The water-soluble content of the pigment is more preferably 1.0% or less. The specific electrical conductivity of the pigment is more preferably 100 μS/cm or less. It is more preferable that the water-soluble content of the pigment is 1.0% or less and the specific electrical conductivity of the pigment is 100 μS/cm or less. 
         [0146]    The Y pixel portion preferably includes, as a coloring material, at least one yellow organic dye or pigment selected from the group consisting of C.I. Pigment Yellow 150, C.I. Pigment Yellow 215, C.I. Pigment Yellow 185, C.I. Pigment Yellow 138, and C.I. Pigment Yellow 139. 
         [0147]    The chromaticity of each of the above-described pixel portions can be controlled by changing the types of the dyes and pigments used or the mixing ratio of the dyes and pigments. For example, the chromaticity of an R pixel can be controlled by adding a yellow dye or pigment and/or an orange pigment to a red dye or pigment in an appropriate amount, the chromaticity of a G pixel can be controlled by adding a yellow dye or pigment to a green dye or pigment in an appropriate amount, and the chromaticity of a B pixel can be controlled by adding a purple dye or pigment to a blue dye or pigment in an appropriate amount. The chromaticity of the pixels can also be controlled by appropriately changing the diameter of the particles of a pigment. 
         [0148]    The pixel portions of the color filter may be formed by a publicly known method. A common method for forming pixel portions is photolithography. In photolithography, the photo-curable composition described below is applied to a surface of a transparent substrate for color filters on which a black matrix is disposed and then dried by being heated (pre-baked). Subsequently, the surface of the transparent substrate is irradiated with ultraviolet rays through a photomask to perform pattern exposure to cure portions of the photo-curable compound corresponding to pixel portions. Unexposed portions are developed with a developing solution. Non-pixel portions are removed, and the pixel portions are fixed on the transparent substrate. In this method, pixel portions formed of a cured, colored coating film composed of the photo-curable composition are formed on the transparent substrate. 
         [0149]    For each colored pixels of R pixels, G pixels, B pixels, and, as needed, other color pixels such as Y pixels, the photo-curable compositions described below are prepared and the above-described operations are repeated. Thus, a color filter including colored pixel portions of R pixels, G pixels, B pixels, and Y pixels formed at the respective predetermined positions can be produced. 
         [0150]    Spin coating, roll coating, an ink-jet method, and the like can be employed for applying the photo-curable composition described below to a transparent substrate composed of glass or the like. 
         [0151]    The conditions for drying the coating film composed of the photo-curable composition applied to a transparent substrate vary depending on, for example, the types of and proportions of the constituents of the photo-curable composition, but are generally at 50° C. to 150° C. for about 1 to about 15 minutes. Light used for photo-curing of the photo-curable composition is preferably ultraviolet rays in the wavelength range of 200 to 500 nm or visible light. Any light source that emits light in this wavelength range can be used. 
         [0152]    Examples of a developing method include a liquid application method, a dipping method, and a spraying method. After the exposure and development of the photo-curable composition, the transparent substrate on which the pixel portions of the desired colors are formed is washed with water and then dried. The resulting color filter is subjected to a heat treatment (post-baking) at 90° C. to 280° C. for a predetermined time using a heating device such as a hot plate or an oven. This removes volatile constituents contained in the colored coating film and causes an unreacted portion of the photo-curable compound remaining in the cured, colored coating film composed of the photo-curable composition to heat-cure. Thus, a color filter is formed. 
         [0153]    By using the coloring material for color filters according to the present invention in combination with the liquid crystal composition according to the present invention, a liquid crystal display apparatus that limits a reduction in the voltage holding ratio (VHR) of the liquid crystal layer and limits an increase in the ion density (ID) of the liquid crystal layer, which addresses faulty display issues such as white missing pixels, alignment inconsistencies, and burn-in, can be provided. 
         [0154]    In general, the photo-curable composition can be prepared in the following manner. Essential components, that is, the dye and/or pigment composition for color filters according to the present invention, an organic solvent, and a dispersing agent are mixed together, and the resulting mixture is stirred so as to uniformly disperse these components. Thus, a pigment dispersion used for forming pixel portion of a color filter is prepared. Then, a photo-curable compound and, as needed, a thermoplastic resin, a photopolymerization initiator, and the like are added to the pigment dispersion. Thus, the photo-curable composition is prepared.

In addition, synthetic resins that are insoluble in water and liquid at room temperature may also be used. Examples of such synthetic resins include an acrylic resin; a urethane resin; an alkyd resin; natural rosins such as a wood rosin, a gum rosin, and a tall rosin; modified rosins such as a polymerized rosin, a disproportionated rosin, a hydrogenated rosin, an oxidized rosin, and a maleated rosin; and rosin derivatives such as a rosin amine, a lime rosin, alkylene oxide adducts of a rosin, alkyd adducts of a rosin, and a rosin-modified phenol. Addition of the above-described dispersing agents and the above-described resins also contributes to reduction in flocculation, improvement of the dispersion stability of the pigments, and improvement of the viscometric property of the dispersion solutions. 
         [0157]    An organic pigment derivative such as a phthalimidemethyl derivative, a sulfonic acid derivative, an N-(dialkylamino)methyl derivative, or an N-(dialkylaminoalkyl)sulfonic acid amide derivative may also be added as a dispersing aid. Needless to say, two or more different types of these derivatives may be used in combination. 
         [0158]    Examples of the thermoplastic resin used for preparing the photo-curable composition include a urethane resin, an acrylic resin, a polyamide resin, a polyimide resin, a styrene-maleic acid-based resin, and a styrene-maleic anhydride-based resin. 
         [0159]    Examples of the photo-curable compound include difunctional monomers such as 1,6-hexanediol diacrylate, ethylene glycol diacrylate, neopentyl glycol diacrylate, triethylene glycol diacrylate, bis(acryloxyethoxy)bisphenol A, and 3-methylpentanediol diacrylate; multifunctional monomers having a relatively low molecular weight, such as trimethylolpropatone triacrylate, pentaerythritol triacrylate, tris[2-(meth)acryloyloxyethyl]isocyanurate, dipentaerythritol hexaacrylate, and dipentaerythritol pentaacrylate; and multifunctional monomers having a relatively high molecular weight, such as polyester acrylate, polyurethane acrylate, and polyether acrylate. 
         [0160]    Examples of the photopolymerization initiator include acetophenone, benzophenone, benzildimethylketanol, benzoyl peroxide, 2-chlorothioxanthone, 1,3-bis(4′-azidobenzal)-2-propane, 1,3-bis(4′-azidobenzal)-2-propane-2′-sulfonic acid, and 4,4′-diazidostilbene-2,2′-disulfonic acid. Examples of commercially available photopolymerization initiators include “Irgacure (trade name)-184”, “Irgacure (trade name)-369”, “Darocur (trade name)-1173”, and “Lucirin-TPO” produced by BASF, “KAYACURE (trade name) DETX” and “KAYACURE (trade name) OA” produced by Nippon Kayaku Co., Ltd., “Vicure 10” and “Vicure 55” produced by Stauffer Chemical Co., “Trigonal PI” produced by Akzo Nobel N.V., “Sandrey 1000” produced by Sand, “Deep” produced by Upjohn Company, and “Biimidazole” produced by KUROGANE KASEI Co., Ltd. 
         [0161]    Publicly known, commonly used photosensitizers may be used in combination with the above-described photopolymerization initiators. Examples of the photosensitizers include amines, ureas, compounds containing a sulfur atom, compounds containing a phosphorus atom, compounds containing a chlorine atom, nitriles, and other compounds containing a nitrogen atom. These compounds may be used alone or in combination of two or more. 
         [0162]    The mixing proportion of the photopolymerization initiator is preferably, but is not particularly limited to, 0.1% to 30% by mass relative to the amount of compounds including a photo-polymerizable or photo-curable functional group. If the mixing proportion of the photopolymerization initiator is less than 0.1%, the photographic sensitivity during photo-curing may decrease. If the mixing proportion of the photopolymerization initiator exceeds 30%, the crystal of the photopolymerization initiator may precipitate when a pigment-dispersed resist coating film is dried, which may deteriorate the physical properties of the coating film. 
         [0163]    Using the above-described materials, by mass, 100 parts of the dye and/or pigment composition for color filters according to the present invention is mixed with 300 to 1000 parts of an organic solvent and 1 to 100 parts of a dispersing agent, and the resulting mixture is stirred so as to uniformly disperse the components. Thus, the above-described dye and pigment liquid can be prepared. Subsequently, a thermoplastic resin, a photo-curable compound, a photopolymerization initiator, and, as needed, an organic solvent are added to the pigment dispersion in such a manner that the total amount of the thermoplastic resin and the photo-curable compound is 3 to 20 parts relative to 1 part of the pigment composition for color filters according to the present invention and the amount of the photopolymerization initiator is 0.05 to 3 parts relative to 1 part of the photo-curable compound. The resulting mixture is stirred so as to uniformly disperse the above components. Thus, a photo-curable composition for forming pixel portions of the color filter is prepared. 
         [0164]    Publicly known and commonly used organic solvents and aqueous alkaline solutions may be used as a developing solution. In particular, when the photo-curable composition includes a thermoplastic resin or a photo-curable compound and at least one of them has an acid value and alkali-solubility, washing with an aqueous alkaline solution may be effective in forming pixel portions of the color filter. 
         [0165]    A method for producing pixel portions of the color filter by photolithography is described above in detail. Alternatively, the pixel portions of the color filter, which are prepared using the pigment composition for color filters according to the present invention, may be formed by another method such as an electrodeposition method, a transfer method, a micelle electrolysis method, a PVED (photovoltaic electrodeposition) method, an ink-jet method, a reverse printing method, or a thermosetting method. The pixel portions are formed for each color to produce a color filter. 
       (Alignment Film) 
       [0166]    In the liquid crystal display apparatus according to the present invention, when an alignment film is provided in order to align a liquid crystal composition, the alignment film is disposed between the color filter and the liquid crystal layer on a surface of the first substrate and a surface of the second substrate which are brought into contact with the liquid crystal composition. The thickness of the alignment film is small, that is, 100 nm or less at most. Thus, the alignment film does not completely block the interaction between coloring agents such as pigments constituting the color filter and a liquid crystal compound constituting the liquid crystal layer. 
         [0167]    In a liquid crystal display apparatus that does not include the alignment film, the interaction between coloring agents, such as pigments, constituting the color filter and a liquid crystal compound constituting the liquid crystal layer becomes stronger. 
         [0168]    The alignment film may be composed of, for example, a transparent organic material such as polyimide, polyamide, BCB (benzocyclobutene polymer), or polyvinyl alcohol. In particular, a polyimide alignment film formed by imidization of a polyamic acid prepared by synthesizing a diamine such as an aliphatic or alicyclic diamine (e.g., p-phenylenediamine or 4,4′-diaminodiphenylmethane) with an aliphatic or alicyclic tetracarboxylic acid anhydride (e.g., butanetetracarboxylic acid anhydride or 2,3,5-tricarboxycyclopentyl acetic acid anhydride) or with an aromatic tetracarboxylic acid anhydride (e.g., pyromellitic dianhydride) is preferably used. In this case, generally, alignment is performed by rubbing. When the film serves as a vertical alignment film or the like, alignment is not necessarily performed. 
         [0169]    The alignment film may be composed of a material including chalcone, cinnamate, cinnamoyl, or an azo group in the compound. Such a material can be used in combination with polyimide, polyamide, or the like. In such a case, the alignment film may be formed by rubbing or using a photo-alignment technology. 
         [0170]    In order to form the alignment film, in general, the above-described material of the alignment film is applied to a substrate by spin coating to form a resin film. Alternatively, a uniaxial stretching method, the Langmuir-Blodgett method, and the like may be employed. 
       (Transparent Electrode) 
       [0171]    In the liquid crystal display apparatus according to the present invention, the transparent electrode may be composed of a conductive metal oxide. Examples of the metal oxide include indium oxide (In 2 O 2 ), tin oxide (SnO 2 ), zinc oxide (ZnO), indium tin oxide (In 2 O 2 —SnO 2 ), indium zinc oxide (In 2 O 2 —ZnO), niobium-doped titanium dioxide (Ti 1-x Nb x O 2 ), fluorine-doped tin oxide, graphene nanoribbon, and metal nanowire. Zinc oxide (ZnO), indium tin oxide (In 2 O 2 —SnO 2 ), and indium zinc oxide (In 2 O 2 —ZnO) are preferably used. These transparent conductive films can be patterned by, for example, photo-etching or using a mask.

       [Preparation of Color Filter] 
     [Preparation of Coloring Composition] 
       [0205]    [Red Pigment Coloring Composition 1] 
         [0206]    Into a plastic bottle, 10 parts of a red pigment 1 (C.I. Pigment Red 254, water-soluble content: 0.3%, specific electrical conductivity: 30 μS/cm) was charged. Into the plastic bottle, 55 parts of propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate, 7.0 parts of DISPERBYK LPN21116 (produced by BYK-Chemie), and 0.3-to-0.4-mmφ SEPR beads were added. These components were dispersed for 4 hours using Paint Conditioner (produced by Toyo Seiki Kogyo Co., Ltd.). The resulting mixture was filtered through a 5-μm filter to prepare a pigment dispersion. Then, 75.00 parts of the pigment dispersion was mixed with 5.50 parts of a polyester acrylate resin (ARONIX (trade name) M7100, produced by TOAGOSEI CO., LTD.), 5.00 parts of dipentaerythritol hexaacrylate (KAYARAD (trade name) DPHA, produced by Nippon Kayaku Co., Ltd.), 1.00 parts of benzophenone (KAYACURE (trade name) BP-100, produced by Nippon Kayaku Co., Ltd.), and 13.5 parts of UCAR ester EEP under stirring using a dispersion stirrer. The resulting mixture was filtered through a filter having a pore size of 1.0 μm. Thus, a red pigment coloring composition 1 was prepared. 
         [0207]    Note that the water-soluble content of the pigment was calculated in accordance with JIS K5101-16-1 (Test methods for pigments-Part 16: Matter soluble in water-Section 1: Hot extraction method), that is, in the following manner: 
         [0208]    1. Into a 500-mL rigid beaker, 5.00 g of an accurately weighed pigment is charged. To the beaker, 200 mL of ion-exchange water (electrical conductivity: 5 μS/cm or less, pH: 7.0±1.0) is added. The ion-exchange water is added in small amounts at a time. After 5 mL of first-grade reagent methanol is added to the beaker to soak the pigment in the ion-exchange water to a sufficient degree, the remaining ion-exchange water is added to the beaker. The resulting liquid mixture is boiled for 5 minutes. 
         [0209]    2. The liquid mixture is cooled to room temperature, and transferred to a 250-mL graduated cylinder. To the graduated cylinder, the above-described ion-exchange water is added until the volume of the liquid mixture becomes 250 mL. The liquid mixture is vigorously stirred and then filtered through a filter paper No. 5C produced by ADVANTEC. 
         [0210]    3. Initially, about 50 mL of the filtrate is removed, and 100 mL of the remaining filtrate is weighed using a graduated cylinder and transferred to an evaporation pan of known mass. The filtrate adhering to the graduated cylinder is washed off with a small amount of ion-exchange water into the evaporation pan. 
         [0211]    4. The evaporation pan is placed in a water bath, and evaporation to dryness is performed. The evaporation pan is dried for 2 hours in a drying machine kept at 105° C. to 110° C. and subsequently charged into a desiccator. After the evaporation pan is left to cool, the mass of the evaporation pan is measured. Thus, the amount of substance that remained after evaporation is determined. 
         [0212]    5. The water-soluble content of the pigment is calculated using the following formula. 
         [0000]      Water-soluble content of the pigment(%)=Amount of substance remaining after evaporation(g)×2.5/Mass of the pigment(g)×100
 
         [0213]    The specific electrical conductivity of the pigment was calculated in the following manner. The specific electrical conductivity of the ion-exchange water used was measured using a conductivity meter (e.g., Model: CM-30V produced by DKK-TOA CORPORATION). The specific electrical conductivity of the 100 mL of filtrate, which was weighed using a graduated cylinder in the above step 3, was measured using the conductivity meter. Then, the specific electrical conductivity of the pigment was calculated by correcting the measured value by using the following formula. 
         [0000]      Specific electrical conductivity of the pigment=Specific electrical conductivity of the filtrate−Specific electrical conductivity of the ion-exchange water used

         [0246]    [Preparation of Color Filter] 
         [0247]    A specific one of the red coloring compositions was applied to a glass substrate, on which a black matrix was deposited, by spin coating so as to form a coating film having a thickness of 2 μm. After being dried at 70° C. for 20 minutes, the coating film was exposed to ultraviolet rays through a photomask using an exposure machine including an extra-high pressure mercury lamp to form a striped pattern. The patterned coating film was subjected to spray development using an alkali developing solution for 90 seconds, then washed with ion-exchanged water, and air-dried. Subsequently, post-baking was performed in a clean oven at 230° C. for 30 minutes. Thus, red pixels constituted by a colored layer having a striped pattern were formed on the transparent substrate. 
         [0248]    In the same manner, a specific one of the green coloring compositions was applied to the glass substrate by spin coating so as to form a coating film having a thickness of 2 μm. After being dried, the coating film was exposed to light using the exposure machine so that a colored layer having a striped pattern was developed at a position displaced from that of the red pixels. Thus, green pixels adjacent to the red pixels were formed. 
         [0249]    In the same manner, a specific one of the blue coloring compositions was applied to the glass substrate by spin coating so as to form a coating film having a thickness of 2 μm. Thus, blue pixels adjacent to the red pixels and the green pixels were formed. In the above-described manner, a color filter including three-colored pixels of red, green, and blue having a striped pattern formed on the transparent substrate was prepared. 
         [0250]    Optionally, in the same manner, a specific one of the yellow coloring compositions was also applied to the glass substrate by spin coating so as to form a coating film having a thickness of 2 μm. Thus, blue pixels adjacent to the red pixels and the green pixels were formed. As a result, a color filter including four-colored pixels of red, green, blue, and yellow having a striped pattern formed on the transparent substrate was prepared. 
         [0251]    Color filters 1 to 4 and a comparative color filter 1 were prepared using the dye coloring compositions and the pigment coloring compositions shown in Table 8.

       Examples 1 to 4 
       [0252]    An electrode structure was formed on the first and second substrates, and an alignment film having a vertical alignment was formed on surfaces of the first and second substrates which faced each other. Subsequently, a rubbing treatment was performed to form a TN cell. The liquid crystal composition 1 shown in Table 9, which had a positive dielectric anisotropy, was held between the first and second substrates. Then, liquid crystal display apparatuses of Example 1 (d gap =3.5 μm, alignment film: AL-1051) were each prepared using a specific one of the color filters 1 to 4 shown in Table 8. The VHR and ID of each liquid crystal display apparatus were measured. Each liquid crystal display apparatus was evaluated in terms of burn-in. Table 10 summarizes the results.

         [0253]    The liquid crystal display apparatuses of Examples 1 to 4 had a high VHR and a small ID. Furthermore, a residual image was absent in the burn-in evaluation. Even when a residual image was present, it was very slight and at an acceptable level. 
       Comparative Examples 1 to 8 
       [0254]    The comparative liquid crystal composition 1 or 2 shown in Table 11, which had a positive dielectric anisotropy, was held inside the TN cell used in Example 1. Then, liquid crystal display apparatuses of Comparative Examples 1 to 8 were each prepared using a specific one of the color filters 1 to 4 shown in Table 8. The VHR and ID of each liquid crystal display apparatus were measured. Each liquid crystal display apparatus was evaluated in terms of burn-in. Tables 12 and 13 summarize the results.

         [0255]    The liquid crystal display apparatuses of Comparative Examples 1 to 8 had a lower VHR and a higher ID than the liquid crystal display apparatuses according to the present invention. Furthermore, occurrence of a residual image was observed in the burn-in evaluation, which was not at an acceptable level. 
       Comparative Example 9 
       [0256]    The liquid crystal composition 1 shown in Table 9, which had a positive dielectric anisotropy, was held inside the TN cell used in Example 1. Then, a liquid crystal display apparatus of Comparative Example 9 was prepared using the comparative color filter 1 shown in Table 8. The VHR and ID of the liquid crystal display apparatus were measured. The liquid crystal display apparatus was evaluated in terms of burn-in. Table 14 summarizes the results.

         [0257]    The liquid crystal display apparatus of Comparative Example 9 had a lower VHR and a higher ID than the liquid crystal display apparatuses according to the present invention. Furthermore, occurrence of a residual image was observed in the burn-in evaluation, which was not at an acceptable level. 
       Examples 5 to 16 
       [0258]    A specific one of the liquid crystals shown in Table 15, which had a positive dielectric anisotropy, was held between the first and second substrates as in Example 1. Then, liquid crystal display apparatuses of Examples 5 to 12 were each prepared using a specific one of the color filters shown in Table 8. The VHR and ID of each liquid crystal display apparatus were measured. Each liquid crystal display apparatus was evaluated in terms of burn-in. Tables 16 to 18 summarize the results.

         [0259]    The liquid crystal display apparatuses of Examples 5 to 16 had a high VHR and a small ID. Furthermore, a residual image was absent in the burn-in evaluation. Even when a residual image was present, it was very slight and at an acceptable level. 
       Examples 17 to 28 
       [0260]    A specific one of the liquid crystals shown in Table 19, which had a positive dielectric anisotropy, was held between the first and second substrates as in Example 1. Then, liquid crystal display apparatuses of Examples 17 to 28 were each prepared using a specific one of the color filters shown in Table 8. The VHR and ID of each liquid crystal display apparatus were measured. Each liquid crystal display apparatus was evaluated in terms of burn-in. Tables 20 to 22 summarize the results.

         [0261]    The liquid crystal display apparatuses of Examples 17 to 28 had a high VHR and a small ID. Furthermore, a residual image was absent in the burn-in evaluation. Even when a residual image was present, it was very slight and at an acceptable level. 
       Examples 29 to 40 
       [0262]    A specific one of the liquid crystals shown in Table 23, which had a positive dielectric anisotropy, was held between the first and second substrates as in Example 1. Then, liquid crystal display apparatuses of Examples 29 to 40 were each prepared using a specific one of the color filters shown in Table 8. The VHR and ID of each liquid crystal display apparatus were measured. Each liquid crystal display apparatus was evaluated in terms of burn-in. Tables 24 to 26 summarize the results.

         [0263]    The liquid crystal display apparatuses of Examples 29 to 40 had a high VHR and a small ID. Furthermore, a residual image was absent in the burn-in evaluation. Even when a residual image was present, it was very slight and at an acceptable level. 
       Examples 41 to 56 
       [0264]    A specific one of the liquid crystals shown in Tables 27 and 28, which had a positive dielectric anisotropy, was held between the first and second substrates as in Example 1. Then, liquid crystal display apparatuses of Examples 41 to 56 were each prepared using a specific one of the color filters shown in Table 8. The VHR and ID of each liquid crystal display apparatus were measured. Each liquid crystal display apparatus was evaluated in terms of burn-in. Tables 29 to 32 summarize the results.

         [0265]    The liquid crystal display apparatuses of Examples 41 to 56 had a high VHR and a small ID. Furthermore, a residual image was absent in the burn-in evaluation. Even when a residual image was present, it was very slight and at an acceptable level. 
       Examples 57 to 72 
       [0266]    A specific one of the liquid crystals shown in Table 33, which had a positive dielectric anisotropy, was held between the first and second substrates as in Example 1. Then, liquid crystal display apparatuses of Examples 57 to 72 were each prepared using a specific one of the color filters shown in Table 8. The VHR and ID of each liquid crystal display apparatus were measured. Each liquid crystal display apparatus was evaluated in terms of burn-in. Tables 34 to 37 summarize the results.

         [0267]    The liquid crystal display apparatuses of Examples 57 to 72 had a high VHR and a small ID. Furthermore, a residual image was absent in the burn-in evaluation. Even when a residual image was present, it was very slight and at an acceptable level. 
       Examples 73 to 80 
       [0268]    A specific one of the liquid crystals shown in Table 38, which had a positive dielectric anisotropy, was held between the first and second substrates as in Example 1. Then, liquid crystal display apparatuses of Examples 73 to 80 were each prepared using a specific one of the color filters shown in Table 8. The VHR and ID of each liquid crystal display apparatus were measured. Each liquid crystal display apparatus was evaluated in terms of burn-in. Tables 39 and 40 summarize the results.

         [0269]    The liquid crystal display apparatuses of Examples 73 to 80 had a high VHR and a small ID. Furthermore, a residual image was absent in the burn-in evaluation. Even when a residual image was present, it was very slight and at an acceptable level. 
       Examples 81 to 88 
       [0270]    A specific one of the liquid crystals shown in Table 41, which had a positive dielectric anisotropy, was held between the first and second substrates as in Example 1. Then, liquid crystal display apparatuses of Examples 81 to 88 were each prepared using a specific one of the color filters shown in Table 8. The VHR and ID of each liquid crystal display apparatus were measured. Each liquid crystal display apparatus was evaluated in terms of burn-in. Tables 42 and 43 summarize the results.

         [0271]    The liquid crystal display apparatuses of Examples 81 to 88 had a high VHR and a small ID. Furthermore, a residual image was absent in the burn-in evaluation. Even when a residual image was present, it was very slight and at an acceptable level. 
       Examples 89 to 96 
       [0272]    A specific one of the liquid crystals shown in Table 44, which had a positive dielectric anisotropy, was held between the first and second substrates as in Example 1. Then, liquid crystal display apparatuses of Examples 89 to 96 were each prepared using a specific one of the color filters shown in Table 8. The VHR and ID of each liquid crystal display apparatus were measured. Each liquid crystal display apparatus was evaluated in terms of burn-in. Tables 45 and 46 summarize the results.

         [0273]    The liquid crystal display apparatuses of Examples 89 to 96 had a high VHR and a small ID. Furthermore, a residual image was absent in the burn-in evaluation. Even when a residual image was present, it was very slight and at an acceptable level. 
       Examples 97 to 104 
       [0274]    A specific one of the liquid crystals shown in Table 47, which had a positive dielectric anisotropy, was held between the first and second substrates as in Example 1. Then, liquid crystal display apparatuses of Examples 97 to 104 were each prepared using a specific one of the color filters shown in Table 8. The VHR and ID of each liquid crystal display apparatus were measured. Each liquid crystal display apparatus was evaluated in terms of burn-in. Tables 48 and 49 summarize the results.

         [0275]    The liquid crystal display apparatuses of Examples 97 to 104 had a high VHR and a small ID. Furthermore, a residual image was absent in the burn-in evaluation. Even when a residual image was present, it was very slight and at an acceptable level. 
       Examples 105 to 112 
       [0276]    A specific one of the liquid crystals shown in Table 50, which had a positive dielectric anisotropy, was held between the first and second substrates as in Example 1. Then, liquid crystal display apparatuses of Examples 105 to 112 were each prepared using a specific one of the color filters shown in Table 8. The VHR and ID of each liquid crystal display apparatus were measured. Each liquid crystal display apparatus was evaluated in terms of burn-in. Tables 51 and 52 summarize the results.

         [0277]    The liquid crystal display apparatuses of Examples 105 to 112 had a high VHR and a small ID. Furthermore, a residual image was absent in the burn-in evaluation. Even when a residual image was present, it was very slight and at an acceptable level. 
       Examples 113 to 120 
       [0278]    A specific one of the liquid crystals shown in Table 53, which had a positive dielectric anisotropy, was held between the first and second substrates as in Example 1. Then, liquid crystal display apparatuses of Examples 113 to 120 were each prepared using a specific one of the color filters shown in Table 8. The VHR and ID of each liquid crystal display apparatus were measured. Each liquid crystal display apparatus was evaluated in terms of burn-in. Tables 54 and 55 summarize the results.

         [0279]    The liquid crystal display apparatuses of Examples 113 to 120 had a high VHR and a small ID. Furthermore, a residual image was absent in the burn-in evaluation. Even when a residual image was present, it was very slight and at an acceptable level. 
       Examples 121 to 128 
       [0280]    A specific one of the liquid crystals shown in Table 56, which had a positive dielectric anisotropy, was held between the first and second substrates as in Example 1. Then, liquid crystal display apparatuses of Examples 121 to 128 were each prepared using a specific one of the color filters shown in Table 8. The VHR and ID of each liquid crystal display apparatus were measured. Each liquid crystal display apparatus was evaluated in terms of burn-in. Tables 57 and 58 summarize the results.

         [0281]    The liquid crystal display apparatuses of Examples 121 to 128 had a high VHR and a small ID. Furthermore, a residual image was absent in the burn-in evaluation. Even when a residual image was present, it was very slight and at an acceptable level. 
       Examples 129 to 132 
       [0282]    A liquid crystal composition 33 was prepared by mixing the liquid crystal composition 1 used in Example 1, which had a positive dielectric anisotropy, with 0.3% by mass of 2-methyl-acrylic acid 4′-{2-[4-(2-acryloyloxy-ethyl)-phenoxycarbonyl]-ethyl}-biphenyl-4-yl ester. The liquid crystal composition 33 was held inside the TN cell used in Example 1. While a driving voltage was applied between the electrodes, ultraviolet irradiation (3.0 J/cm 2 ) was done for 600 seconds to perform a polymerization treatment. Subsequently, liquid crystal display apparatuses of Examples 129 to 132 were each prepared using a specific one of the color filters 1 to 4 shown in Table 8. The VHR and ID of each liquid crystal display apparatus were measured. Each liquid crystal display apparatus was evaluated in terms of burn-in. Table 59 summarizes the results.

         [0289]    The liquid crystal display apparatuses of Examples 141 to 144 had a high VHR and a small ID. Furthermore, a residual image was absent in the burn-in evaluation. Even when a residual image was present, it was very slight and at an acceptable level. 
       Examples 145 to 148 
       [0290]    The liquid crystal shown in Table 64, which had a positive dielectric anisotropy, was held between the first and second substrates as in Example 1. Then, liquid crystal display apparatuses of Examples 145 to 148 were each prepared using a specific one of the color filters shown in Table 8. The VHR and ID of each liquid crystal display apparatus were measured. Each liquid crystal display apparatus was evaluated in terms of burn-in. Table 65 summarizes the results.

         [0295]    The liquid crystal display apparatuses of Examples 153 to 156 had a high VHR and a small ID. Furthermore, a residual image was absent in the burn-in evaluation. Even when a residual image was present, it was very slight and at an acceptable level. 
       Examples 157 to 160 
       [0296]    The liquid crystal shown in Table 70, which had a positive dielectric anisotropy, was held between the first and second substrates as in Example 1. Then, liquid crystal display apparatuses of Examples 157 to 160 were each prepared using a specific one of the color filters shown in Table 8. The VHR and ID of each liquid crystal display apparatus were measured. Each liquid crystal display apparatus was evaluated in terms of burn-in. Table 71 summarizes the results.
