초록

We successfully developed new photo-alignment materials which can be treated with linearly polarized UV (LPUV) light in near UV region. The alignment films were also shown to provide with surface anchoring as strong as that on rubbed polyimide when exposed to the LPUV light with warming up the substrate. It can be also able to control pretilt angle by introduction of alkyl side chain.
