Abstract

We investigated vertical liquid crystal (LC) alignment effects of a self-assembled-monolayer (SAM) prepared on an anisotropic $SiO_2$ surface where the field-induced LC reorientation produced a uniform single domain texture. We compared the results with the homeotropic-to-random planar reorientation results shown in LCs aligned on a SAM surface prepared on an isotropic $SiO_2$ surface.
