2a08 ホモジニアス/TN配向領域を有するパターン配向セルの光学的特性(フォトニクス・光デバイス,口頭発表,2013年日本液晶学会討論会)

We investigated transmitted light intensity-applied voltage characteristics of patterned liquid crystal (LC) cells with microscale homogeneous and twisted nematic (TN) orientation domains. It was revealed that the transmitted light intensity-applied voltage curve is sensitive to the domain size; that is, the driving voltage is reduced as the domain size decreases. This phenomenon is likely to be caused by the increased tilt angle which is induced by the microscale rubbing pattern.
