A novel polymer-layer-free system for liquid-crystal alignment is demonstrated by various shaped indium tin oxide (ITO) patterns. Liquid crystals are aligned along the ITO line pattern and secondary sputtering lithography can change the shape of the ITO line pattern. Different shapes can control the direction and size of the pretilt angle. This effect eliminates defects and reduces the response time.
通过各种形状的铟锡氧化物(ITO)图案,展示了一种用于液晶取向的新型无聚合物层系统。液晶沿 ITO 线图案排列,并且二次溅射光刻可以改变 ITO 线图案的形状。不同的形状可以控制预倾斜角的方向和大小。这种效果可以消除缺陷并缩短响应时间。
