摘要:

我们已经发现了一种光学均匀类型的域,其发生在扭曲向列(TN)电池中,所述扭曲向列(TN)电池由通过自组装单层(SAM)的微接触印刷用条带化学图案化的基板构造;这样的域不发生在由均匀基板构造的TN电池中。在这样的单元中,基板处的方位角锚定是由于液晶的弹性各向异性而不是传统的摩擦机制。一个模型,预测的扭曲和异常状态的相对稳定性的材料和设计参数的函数。

英文摘要:

We have discovered an optically uniform type of domain that occurs in Twisted Nematic (TN) cells that are constructed from substrates chemically patterned with stripes via microcontact printing of Self-Assembled Monolayers (SAM); such domains do not occur in TN cells constructed from uniform substrates. In such a cell, the azimuthal anchoring at the substrates is due to the elastic anisotropy of the liquid crystal rather than the conventional rubbing mechanism. A model is presented that predicts the relative stability of the twisted and anomalous states as a function of the material and design parameters.
