Abstract

A new kind of nano-structured alignment surface is proposed and demonstrated. Such alignment surface is capable of generating arbitrary pretilt angles for liquid crystal. The new alignment surface is based on nano-imprinting and plasma etching. The domain sizes are fixed and controllable; in addition, no random process is involved. The alignment surface is robust and highly reproducible. Moreover, the processing window is maximized and suitable for mass manufacturing.
