초록

In this work, a soft embossing method is proposed to fabricate microgrooves on polyimide surfaces. Apply these resulting patterned micro-grooved polyimide surfaces as the liquid crystal alignment layers. The director of liquid crystal molecules aligns perfectly along the direction of microgrooves.
