Kutty, TRN (1984) Uniformity in Bias Tilt for Nematics Oriented by Polyvinyl Alcohol Surface Layers. In: Molecular Crystals and Liquid Crystals, 102 (6-7). pp. 167-174.
Full text not available from this repository. (Request a copy)Abstract
Uniformity in bias tilt, for the polyvinyl alcohol(PVA)surface layer induced orientation of nematic liquid crystals, could be achieved for large area display panels, if one of the transparent electrodes is first directionally rubbed with fine abrasive; then both the electrodes coated with PVA, followed by directionally buffing the chemisorbed layers in the same direction. Uniformity may be due to increased 'train' configuration of the adsorbed macromolecule by falling on to microgrooves and maintaining the same sense of asymmetry for the looped segments.
