초록

We have studied the effect of the rubbing fabric for liquid crystal alignment and pretilt angle generation in nematic liquid crystals (NLC), 4-cyano-4-n-penthylbiphenyl (5CB), on rubbed polyimide (PI) surfaces. The pretilt angle of 5CB for nylon and rayon fabric is larger than that of cotton fabric in weak rubbing on rubbed PI surfaces. We conclude that the pretilt angle of 5CB is strongly related to the rubbing fabrics on rubbed PI surfaces.
