Abstract

Abstract— Recent progress made in photo‐aligning liquid crystals in twisted‐nematic (TN) and supertwisted‐nematic (STN) displays by linear photopolymerization (LPP) technology are outlined. LPP alignment makes it possible to achieve high‐resolution azimuthal LC‐director patterns with defined bias‐tilt angles in LCDs and the generation of optically patterned retarders and polarization interference filters on single substrates. LPP alignment is shown to render stable multi‐domain field‐effect displays, such as TN‐ and STN‐LCDs, feasible with much broader fields of view than today's single‐domain displays.
