Abstract

We have studied liquid crystal orientation on rubbed and photoaligned polymer surfaces. The following topics will be presented; (1) visualization of nonuniformity of rubbing, (2) competition between grooves and photoalignment and (3) alignment process of 5CB evaporated on treated surfaces. Through these topics, the importance of the intermolecular liquid crystalline interaction will be emphasized.
