摘要
We prepared photo-crosslinkable polyimide(PI) film, which contains CF(3) moiety. The ketone peak (at 1678cm(-1)) of PI was decreased and broad hydroxyl bond appeared. The decrease of ketone peak was also confirmed with UV-visible spectroscopy. The dichroic ratio of LC cell was obtained. The LC molecules are uniformly aligned perpendicular to polarization direction of irradiated light on PI layers. The pretilt angle of LC on alignment PI films was obtained to be about 3.3 degrees.
