Abstract

In this paper, we investigated the monodomain alignment of nematic liquid crystal(NLC) in the cell fabricated by transcription alignment method on polyimide(PI) surface with side chain. The LC alignment produced by the transcription alignment method is attributed to a memory effect of the NLC on PI surfaces. We observed that the pretilt angle of NLC is generated about $3.7^{\circ}$ with transcription alignment on PI surface. Also, we obtained the good electro-optical(EO) performance of twisted nematic(TN)-liquid crystal display(LCD) by transcription alignment method on PI surface.
