Abstract

We synthesised a photo-alignment material of PM4Ch (poly(4-methacryloylloxychalcone)). The electro-optical (EO) characteristics of photo-aligned twisted nematic (TN)-liquid crystal display (LCD) with linearly polarized ultraviolet (UV) light irradiation on PM4Ch surface were investigated. The uniform alignment of NLC with polarized UV light irradiation on PM4Ch surface was measured. Also, We had The excellent voltage-transmittance characteristics of photo-aligned TN-LCD. The low threshold voltage of photo-aligned TN-LCD was measured. Moreover, the fast response time of photo-aligned TN-LCD on PM4Ch was successfully achieved. Finally The reduction DC voltage of photo-aligned TN-LCD decreases with increasing the UV light irradiation time on photo-dimerized PM4Ch surface.
