편광 푸리에 변환 적외선 분광법과 자외선 분광법을 이용하여 액정 display (LCD)의 배향막으로 널리 사용되는 폴리이미드 (PI) 필름의 편광 자외선 (PUV) 조사에 따른 액정의 배향 메카니즘을 연구하였다. UV 측정 결과, PI 필름은 360 nm 이하 파장의 자외선을 주로 흡수하여 광화학 반응이 유도됨을 알 수 있었다. 또한, PUV가 조사된 PI의 경우, PI 분자들의 분해로 인해 FT-IR 흡수 피크들의 강도가 조사시간에 따라 감소하였고, $3244 cm^{-1}$ 부근에서 완만한 곡선 형태의 새로운 피크가 형성되었다. 또한 조사된 PUV의 극성 방향에 평행한 PI 분자들의 우선적인 광분해 반응으로 인하여 PUV 조사 후 남아 있는 PI 분자들은 조사된 PUV 극성 방향과 수직 배향을 나타내었다. 하지만 러빙 처리된 PI 필름은 러빙 방향과 평행하게 PI 분자들의 재배향이 유도됨을 확인하였다. 또한 러빙 처리 및 PUV가 조사된 PI 배향막을 차용하여 제조된 액정 셀에서는 액정이 러빙 방향에 대해서는 평행하게, 조사된 PUV의 극성방향과는 수직으로 배향함을 확인하였다.

The fringe-field switching (FFS) mode associated with a transition from a homogenously aligned to twist deformation require rubbing process. In this devices, $1^o$ of misalignment in an azimuthal direction could cause voltage-dependent transmittance (V-T) to be different from that in a normal area and consequently results in a rubbing mura. According to our studies, the single domain FFS cells are much more sensitive to the rubbing mura than the dual domain FFS cell. Moreover, the FFS cells with negative LC are much more sensitive to the rubbing mura than the FFS cells with positive LC.

The molecular reorientations and surface morphologies of rubbed films formed from atactic polystyrene (PS) samples with various molecular weights were investigated in detail. Previously unknown surface topography features were newly discovered in rubbed films, depending on molecular weights: submicroscale groove-like meandering structures composed of fine-grooves like pebbles in tens nanometers are present, oriented perpendicular to the rubbing direction. The vinyl main chains, however, were preferentially reoriented along the rubbing direction and the planes of the phenyl side groups were preferentially reoriented perpendicular to the rubbing direction with para-directions that were positioned nearly normal to the film plane. Nematic liquid crystal (LC) molecules were found to always align on the rubbed PS surfaces along the orientation direction of the submicroscale grooves generated by rubbing.

To determine the molecular directionality of PI chains depending on rubbing condition, we measured the angle resolved near edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectra at C K-edge of the rubbed PI films. Twisted nematic mode PI (PI-TN) and in plane switching mode PI (PI-IPS) were introduced to examine the effect of rubbing conditions on the chain directionality. The average tilt angle a of the PI molecules was estimated through the measured intensity change of $C=C\;{\pi}^*$ in NEXAFS C K-edge spectrum by controlling the stage speed and the pile contact depth. After rubbing, the irregular molecular direction changed to a regular direction with a molecular tilt angle of $51.2^{\circ}$ for PI-TN and $49.6^{\circ}$ for PI-IPS at the rubbing condition of the roll speed of 1000 rpm, stage speed of 50 mm/sec, and file contact depth of 0.3 mm. The molecular tilt angle $\alpha$ was linearly decreased in the PI-TN and PI-IPS samples with increasing depth of the pile contact.

편광 푸리에 변환 적외선 분광법을 이용하여 액정 디스플레이의 배향막으로 널리 사용되는 폴리이미드 필름의 편광 자외선 조사에 따른 액정의 배향성과 열적 안정성을 연구하였다. 편광자외선이 조사된 폴리이미드의 경우, 조사된 편광자외선의 극성 방향에 평행한 폴리이미드 분자들의 우선적인 광분해 반응으로 인하여 편광자외선 조사 후 남아 있는 폴리이미드 분자들은 조사된 편광자외선 극성 방향과 수직 배향을 나타내었다. 하지만 러빙 처리된 폴리이미드 필름은 러빙 방향과 평행하게 폴리이미드 분자들의 재배향이 유도됨을 확인하였다. 또한 편광자외선이 조사된 폴리이미드 배향막이 편광자외선 조사를 통한 폴리이미드 분자들의 단편화 반응 때문에 러빙 처리된 폴리이미드 배향막 보다는 열적 안정성이 저하됨을 확인하였다.

We have studied how liquid crystal's rubbing direction and voltage driving method affect generation of disclination line. At first, generation of disclination line in vertical alignment(VA) cell and VA-twisted nematic(TN) cell has been examined. When liquid crystal's rubbing direction of bottom substrate was 0$^{\circ}$, the degree of generated disclination line was the smallest value. Further, the generation of disclination line above the electrode is less in the frame inversion than in the line inversion. Secondly, we have examined a generation of disclination line in reflective fringe-field switching cell. When the distance between common electrodes is over 3 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ with on-state of one pixel and off-state of neighboring pixels, the reflectance appears only on-state pixel without generating reflectance in adjacent pixels.

Copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) Field-effect transistors (FETs) was successfully fabricated on plastic substrates. Orientation of CuPc crystallites on substrate could be obtained via rubbing process. It was revealed that CuPc crystallites were perpendicularly aligned on PES substrates with the rubbing direction. The performance of FETs was affected by orientation of CuPc on rubbed substrates.

To elucidate the liquid crystal(LC) molecules alignment mechanism, it is important to determine the molecular orientation of the rubbed polymer surface molecules that directly contact with LC molecules. In this work, the molecular orientation on a rubbed surface of polyimide (SE-3310, Nissan) film has been studied by polarized FTIR absorption spectroscopy. It has been found that molecular chain on the rubbed surface of polymide film are oriented along the rubbing direction and are tilted up on an average by 5.0$^{\circ}$. In the SHG(Second Harmonic Generation) measurement, the pretilt angle of molecular chain on the poylmide fim was 4.6$^{\circ}$ fro, the surface plane. And the pedit angle of liquid crystal (ZLI-2293, Merck) molecules measured by crystal rotation method was 5.4$^{\circ}$in the same rubbing condition.

We have obtained high performance and low voltage driving OCB panel by reducing the critical voltage and retardation matching between liquid crystal layer and compensation films. The critical voltage in the panel has been minimized by flattening color filter layer and optimizing a rubbing process. In addition, an appropriate retardation of the film and LC layer has scanned to achieve low driving voltage and high transmission. The proto-type 17" WXGA OCB panel has demonstrated with less than 5V drive and over 80 degree for all viewing direction except for rubbing direction with over 90% of TN light efficiency.
