We studied the nematic liquid crystal (NLC) aligning capabilities using the new alignment material of a SiO thin film. The homogenous alignment can be obtain어 using ion beam (IB) exposure on the SIO thin film, when positive type NLC ($Delta\varepsilon$>0) was injected However, the homeotropic alignment can be obtained using ion beam (IB) exposure on the SiO thin film, when negative type NLC ($\Delta\varepsilon$>0) was injected The LC aligning ability on the SiO thin film depends on the dielectric anisotropy type of LC. It will be discussed.

We studied the control of pretilt angles for homeotropic aligned nematic liquid crystal (NLC) on SiOx thin film surface by $45^{\circ}$ evaporation method with electron beam system. The uniform vertical LC alignment on. the SiOx thin film surfaces with electron beam evaporation was achieved. It is considered that the LC alignment on SiOx thin film by $45^{\circ}$ electron beam evaporation is attributed to elastic interaction between LC molecules and micro-grooves at the SiOx thin film surface created by evaporation. The pretilt angles of about $3.5^{\circ}$ in aligned NLC on SiOx thin film surfaces by electron beam evaporation of $45^{\circ}$ were measured. Consequently, the high pretilt angles of the NLC on the SiOx thin film by $45^{\circ}$ oblique electron beam evaporation method can be achieved.

We studied nematic liquid crystal (NLC) alignment effect on the $SiO_x$ thin film deposited $45^{\circ}$ oblique by rf magnetic sputtering system. Pretilt angle and thermal stability characteristic as well as NLC alignment effect were investigated. A uniform liquid crystal alignment effect on the $SiO_x$ thin film was achieved and pretilt angle was about $90^{\circ}$. The thermal stability of the $SiO_x$ thin film was sustained by $200^{\circ}$.

We studied the electro-optical characteristic of vertical alignment liquid crystal display(VA-LCD) on the $SiO_x$ thin film deposited $45^{\circ}$ oblique by rf magnetic sputtering system. LC alignment characteristic showed homeotropic alignment, and pretilt angle was about $90^{\circ}$. A uniform liquid crystal alignment effect on the $SiO_x$ thin film was achieved and the electro-optical characteristic of the $SiO_x$ thin film deposited $45^{\circ}$ oblique by rf magnetic sputtering system was excellent.

We investigated the improvement of viewing angle using a patterned double twisted (PDT) vertical-alignment (VA) cell mode on a homeotropic alignment layer. Good voltage-transmittance curves for negative dielectric anisotropic nematic liquid crystal (NLC) using the PDT-VA cell without a negative compensation film were obtained. The viewing angle of the PDT-VA cell without a negative compensation film was wider than that of a conventional VA cell.

A mixture of two different types of polyimide, one having an alkyl side chain and ordinarily used for homeotropic alignment, and the other without a side chain and ordinarily used for planar alignment, is deposited and baked at high temperatures. When the resulting cell is filled with a nematic liquid crystal, it is found that the pretilt angle is a function of the baking temperature or mixing ratio, and can be controlled continuously over the range 0 to 90.

We proposed a technique controlling continuously pretilt angle in full range with high process margin. The proposed method is characterized by tuning thickness of heterogeneous polyimide (PI) layer that homeotropic PI is mixed with planar PIs.

광감응성 azobenzene 그룹이 분자의 주위 환경에 따라 광이성화 반응이 변화하는 것을 in-situ UV/Vis 분광 실험법과 광학 이방성 측정법을 이용하여 조사하였다. 4-Hyhoxyazobenzene을 포함하는 필름에 광조사함과 동시에 trans-isomer와 cis-isomer 특성 피크의 세기 변화를 측정하여 azobenzene 그룹의 가역적이며 반복적인 광이성화 반응을 알수 있었다. Azobenzene 자기조립체 박막이 입혀진 기판을 액정 셀의 배향막으로 사용하여 액정의 배향을 유도하였을 때, trans-azobenzene 그룹들이 조밀한 packing을 하며 기판에 수직으로 배열한 자기조립체 구조 때문에 액정 분자들도 수직 homeotropic 배향을 하였다. 이와 같은 자기조립체 박막의 액정 셀에 UV 빛을 노광하면 azobenzene그룹이 광이 성화 반응을 일으켜 cis-isomer로 변하게 되며, 이로 인해 액정의 배향이 수직에서 수평 planar 배향으로 변함을 알 수있었다.

In this paper, the generation of high pretilt angle in nematic liquid crystal (NLC) by dipping effect on three kinds of the rubbed polyimide (PI) surface was investigated. The generated pretilt angle of NLC increases due to dipping effect before rubbing treatment on two kinds of the rubbed PI surface with side chain. The generated pretit angle in NLC by using dipping effect after rubbing treatment on PI surface with short side chain is high compared to the PI surface with long side chain. The generated pretit angle of the positive type NLC $(\Delta{\varepsilon}>0)$ is higher as than that of the negative type NLC $({\Delta}{\varepsilon}<0)$ by using dipping effect before rubbing treatment on homeotropic layer. The generated pretilt angle of NLC is attributed to perpendicular component of permittivity ${\varepsilon}_{\perp}$ of NLC on rubbed PI surface.
