Abstract:How the alignment and optical properties of liquid crystal polymer (LCP) film, formed by photo-polymerization of reactive LCs, are affected by the alignment layer (AL) structure, the LCaligning method, and the polymerization conditions has been investigated. It has turned out that the alignment characteristics of LCP film greatly depend on the nature of AL and the polymerization condition and that its optical properties are governed by the degree of the in-plane alignment of LC molecules. In the case of in-air… Show more
