러빙에 의해 유도된 네마틱 액정의 배향 특성과 그 안정성이 액정-폴리이미드 계면 특성과 어떠한 관계가 있는지를 조사하였다. 합성된 5 종류의 폴리이미드 특성을 분석하고 폴리이미드 배향막에서의 액정 배향의 균일성, 선경사각, 정착 에너지, 그리고 열 안정성을 측정 조사하였다. 러빙된 폴리이미드는 강한 정착의 액정 배향을 유도하고 액정 배향의 특성과 안정성은 배향막 표면에서의 액정과 폴리이미드 간의 분자 차원의 상호작용에 의해 결정된다는 것을 확인하였다. 폴리이미드의 유연성의 증가는 이미드화를 촉진시키며 액정의 선경사각과 배향 안정성을 증대시킨다. 반면에, 폴리이미드의 플루오르화는 액정의 배향성 및 배향 안정성을 감소시키는 것으로 나타났다. 폴리이미드의 방향족과 지방족 고리 이무수물 구조에 따른 액정 배향의 특성과 안정성에는 뚜렷한 차이가 나타나지 않았다.

The washing effects on pretilt angle generation in a nematic liquid crystal (NLC), 4-n-pentyl-4'-cyanobiphenyl (5CB) on a rubbed polyimide (PI) surface with trifluoromethyl moiety have been successfully studied. The pretilt angle of 5CB is increased by the washing process on the rubbed PI surface. The surface tension on the rubbed PI surface increases with the rubbing strength RS and then saturated above RS: 150 mm. The pretilt angle of 5CB for all washing processes on the rubbed PI surface decreases with the surface tension. We have found that the pretilt angle of 5CB on the rubbed PI surface may be attributed van der walls (VDW) dispersion interaction between the LC molecules and the polymer surfaces having trifluoromethyl moieties.

The effect of liquid crystal (LC) alignment on a homeotropic polyimide (PI) surface induced by ion beam (IB) irradiation and rubbing process was studied. LC alignment was not affected by IB irradiation with an exposure time of 10 s, and an IB irradiation with an exposure time of 60 s more effectively oriented the LCs on the PI layer than the rubbing process. It was assumed that the LC alignment depended on the C-O bonds created from the C=O bonds on the PI surface broken by IB irradiation after an exposure time of 60 s, which resulted in a strong surface energy that transformed the homeotropic LC alignment to homogeneous states.

Displacement current measuring technique has been applied on the study of monolayers of functional polyimide containing azobenzene derivatives. The displacement current was generated from monolayers on the water surface by monolayer compression and expansion. Displacement current was generated when the area per molecule was about $70{\AA}^2$ and $100{\AA}^2$. Displacement currents were investigated in connection with monolayer of long chain alkylamines. It was found that the maximum of displacement current appeared at the molecular area just before the initial rise of surface pressure in compression cycles of polyamic acid and long chain alkylamines.

We have studied the effect of the mesogenic core of nematic liquid crystals (NLCs) for polar (out-of-plane tilt) anchoring strength and surface order parameter on rubbed polyimide (PI) surfaces. The order of polar anchoring strength for NLCs on rubbed PI surfaces is 5CB > PCH5 > CCH5. From the above results, we suggest that the polar anchoring strength depends on the polarizability of the NLCs. The surface order parameter for NLCs is 5CB > PCH5 > CCH5 on rubbed PI surfaces. We conclude that the polar anchoring strength is strongly related to the surface order parameter on rubbed PI surfaces.

We studied the electro-optical (EO) performance in the vertical-alignment (VA) - l/4$\pi$ cell photoaligned with polarized UV exposure on a homeotropic photopolymer surfaces. Excellent voltage-transmittance curve in the VA - l/4$\pi$ cell photoaligned with polarized UV exposure for 3 min on the photopolymer containing cholesterol group of 8% can be achieved. The V-T characteristics in the VA-l/4$\pi$ cell photoaligned on the photopolymer surface can be improved by increasing cholesteryl group. For response time measurement, the transmittance characteristics of the VA-l/4$\pi$ cell photoaligned on the photopolymer surface was better than that of the VA-l/4$\pi$ cell rubbingaligned on a polyimide(Pl) surface.

We investigated the aligning capabilities for nematic liquid crystal (NLC) using a in-situ photodimerization method on various photopolymer surfaces. High Pretilt angle of the NLC can be measured by obliquely polarized UV exposure of 30$^{\circ}$on a photo-crosslinkable polyimide (PI) based polymer surface for 3 min. The pretilt angle of the NLC generated on the photopolymer surface using the in-situ photodimerization method was higher than that of a blending photopolymers (PI and cinnamate materials).

We have studied the effect of the mesogenic core of nematic liquid crystals (NLCs) for polar (out-of-plane tilt) anchoring strength and surface order parameter on rubbed polyimide (PI) films. The order of polar anchoring strength for NLCs on rubbed PI films is 5CB > PCH5 > CCH5. This order is the same for all rubbing strengths investigated. The surface order parameter for NLCs is 5CB > PCH-5 > CCH5 on rubbed PI films. From these results, we suggest that the polar anchoring strength is strongly related to the surface order parameter.

Ionized cluster beam deposition (ICBD) technique has been employed to fabricate high-purity crystalline polyimide (PI) film. The pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA) and oxydianiline (ODA) were deposited using dual ICB sources, Fourier trans forminfraredspectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS), and Transmission electron microscopy (TEM)study show that the bulk and surface chemical properties and the crystalline structure are very sensitive to the ICBD conditions such as cluster ion acceleration voltage and ionization voltage, At optimum ICBD conditions, the PI films have a maximum imidization, negligible impurities(∼1% isoimide), and a good crystalline structure probably due to the high surface migration energy and surface cleaning effect. These characteristics are superior to those of films deposited by other techniques such as colvent cast, vapowr deposition, or sputtering techniques.

Fast response characteristics of twisted nematic liquid crystal display (TN-LCD) cell with different nematic liquid crystals (NLCs) and cell gap on a rubbed polyimide (PI) surface were studied. High transmittance and fast response time of the TN-LCD on the rubbed PI surface were achieved by using high birefringence ($\Delta$ n) and low cell gap. It is considered that the transmittance and response time of the TN-LCD on the rubbed PI surface decreased as $\Delta$ nd decrease.
