The polymer was characterized by UV absorption spectrum and 1H- NMR spectrum. After processed by Linearly Polarized Polymerization (LPP) method, the spin-coated films of H30-Ci were used as photo-alignment layers to assemble liquid crystal (LC) cells containing nematic liquid crystal (5CB). The observation by polarized microscope showed that the H30-Ci blended with a linear polymer (BP-AN-Ci) photo-alignment layers could align LC molecules in a very uniform way.展开更多

In this system, the 2,5-bis(4'-alkoxyphenyl)benzene as the "kebabs" connects with poly(p-phenylenevinylene) (PPV) main chain backbone using its molecular gravity center and the PPV as the "shish" or "skewer" (the "shish-kebab"). The polymers possess desirable properties such as excellent solubility and liquid crystalline properties. To drop the "kebabs" of the 2,5-bis(4'-alkoxyphenyl)benzene into the orientation microgroove of aligned polyimide film, not only the "shish" of polymer main chain can be aligned by the virtue of orientation of "kebabs" but also the uniform cross-conjugated structure between the "kebabs" and "shish" can be broken. Then, the alignment of the polymer main chain showed yellow light emission and was also accompanied by orientation of the LC side chains showing blue light emission, this gave rise to a notable linearly polarized white fluorescence.展开更多
