Liquid crystal panel, switchable mirror panel and switchable mirror display

Abstract

The present invention provides a liquid crystal panel that achieves low-voltage driving and wide color gamut and suppresses the generation of residual DC voltage caused by UV light included in backlight illumination or the like, a switchable mirror panel including the liquid crystal panel, and a switchable mirror display including the liquid crystal panel. The liquid crystal panel of the present invention includes: a first substrate; a second substrate; a liquid crystal layer held between the first substrate and the second substrate; and a vertical alignment film disposed on a liquid crystal layer side of each of the first substrate and the second substrate. The liquid crystal layer contains a liquid crystal material with a negative anisotropy of dielectric constant. The liquid crystal material contains a tolan liquid crystal compound. The vertical alignment film contains a vertical alignment polymer that includes a main chain and a side chain. The side chain includes a saturated aliphatic functional group at a terminal.
