Abstract
Abstract A color liquid crystal display device as disclosed uses a color filter in a liquid crystal cell in which a layer of a polymide resin for orientation of liquid crystal molecules is provided to cover the color filter or the orientation layer of liquid crystal molecules contains a dye or like coloring substance to form a combined orientation and color filter layer.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
132 words
A color matrix liquid crystal device comprising in combination; (a) a light source, (b) a pair of polarizers having a pair of opposing transparent substrates sandwiched therebetween, (c) a pair of transparent linear electrodes facing each other provided on each of said substrates to form a matrix electrode structure wherein the intersections of the electrodes define picture elements for display, (d) a liquid crystal composition provided between said substrates, and (e) transparent layers for orientation of said liquid crystal composition formed over the surface of each of said electrodes, each of said orientation layers being composed of a polyimide resin containing transparent red, green and blue inks, to form a combined color filter and liquid crystal orientation layer, said layer providing red, green and blue (RGB) patterns corresponding to said picture elements.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
132 words
A color matrix liquid crystal device comprising in combination; (a) a light source, (b) a pair of polarizers having a pair of opposing transparent substrates sandwiched therebetween, (c) a pair of transparent linear electrodes facing each other provided on each of said substrates to form a matrix electrode structure wherein the intersections of the electrodes define picture elements for display, (d) a liquid crystal composition provided between said substrates, and (e) transparent layers for orientation of said liquid crystal composition formed over the surface of each of said electrodes, each of said orientation layers being composed of a polyimide resin containing transparent red, green and blue inks, to form a combined color filter and liquid crystal orientation layer, said layer providing red, green and blue (RGB) patterns corresponding to said picture elements.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
19 words
The liquid crystal cell construction of claim 1, in which said polyimide resin is a polyimide siloxane copolymer resin.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
106 words
The liquid crystal cell construction of claim 2, in which said polyimidesiloxane copolymer resin is formed by copolymerizing, in an organic solvent, a diaminosiloxane having the formula (I): ##STR9## wherein R is a bivalent organic group, R' is a monovalent, organic group and x is an integer from 1 to 4, with a diamine having the formula (II): H.sub.2 N--Q--NH.sub.2 (II) wherein Q is a bivalent organic group free from silicon atom, and a tetracarboxylic acid dianhydride having the formula (III): ##STR10## wherein R" is a tetravalent organic group, to yield a polyamido acid-siloxane copolymer resin, and subjecting said copolymerized resin to internal condensation under heating.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
31 words
The color matrix liquid crystal display device of claim 1, wherein one of said transparent electrodes comprises a scanning electrode and the other of said transparent electrodes comprises a signal electrode.
