Photoimaging on an Optically Anisotropic Film with a Polymerizable Smectic Liquid Crystal
Source abstract
Abstract
The orientation under an electric field of a smectic A phase liquid crystal (LC) is unveiled in this communication. The authors have prepared a rod-like LC consisting of two photoreactive chalcone units and have carried out photopolymerization by UV irradiation. The Figure shows the image patterns observed under a polarizing microscope. Applications of this technique may include microscopic patterning.
