    Abstract: A liquid crystal device is constituted by a pair of oppositely disposed substrates having opposing inner surfaces and opposing electrodes thereon, and a chiral smectic liquid crystal disposed between the opposing electrodes. The liquid crystal device has an effective optical modulation region (2) and a peripheral region (3) outside the effective optical modulation region. In the device, liquid crystal molecules in the peripheral region have a pretilt angle ( alpha 2) which is larger than a pretilt angle ( alpha 1) of liquid crystal molecules in the effective optical modulation region. As a result, a local pressure irregularity or a cell thickness change caused by a liquid crystal molecular movement along an extension of the device is effectively suppressed.

    Abstract: In a coating method for forming a film of a coating material on a substrate by supplying the coating material from a coating unit to the substrate held by a stage while the coating unit is moved relative to the stage, the stage includes a substrate-holding section and a peripheral section which has a surface higher than that of the substrate-holding section. The coating method includes the steps of mounting the substrate on the substrate-holding section of the stage; forming the film of the coating material so that the coating covers the substrate and extends to the peripheral section; and removing the coating material remaining in the peripheral section by a coating material removing unit after the substrate provided with the film is dismounted from the stage.

    Abstract: There is disclosed a ferroelectric liquid crystal device in which a pair of substrates and having electrodes are arranged so that the electrode surfaces face each other, a sealing agent is provided in the peripheral edge portions of the substrates, a liquid crystal injection port is opened in a part of the sealing agent, and a liquid crystal is injected from the injection port into a gap between both of the substrates. An intersection angle which is formed by the rubbing direction to orient the liquid crystal and the direction to inject the liquid crystal from the injection port lies within a range from -45 DEG to +45 DEG .

    Abstract: A ferroelectric liquid crystal device is formed by disposing a ferroelectric liquid crystal between a pair of substrates, each having thereon a group of electrodes for driving the ferroelectric liquid crystal and provided with a uniaxial alignment axis for aligning the ferroelectric liquid crystal molecules. The uniaxial alignment axes provided to the pair of substrates are disposed to intersect each other at a prescribed intersection angle, and the liquid crystal molecules (501) are aligned to provide a director (503) forming a pre-tilt angle ( alpha ) of 5 to 35 degrees with the liquid crystal aligning surfaces (502) of the substrates (101-101a). The ferroelectric liquid crystal device provides an improved contrast as well as a broad drive margin.
