Problems solved by technology

The traditional method based on rubbing orientation seriously affects the use of materials due to the static electricity and dust generated during the rubbing process.
With the continuous advancement of science, methods to control the orientation of liquid crystals by using light, electricity, and magnetic fields have been proposed one after another, but these methods are all realized by external stimuli (such as light, electricity, and magnetism), which makes the process complicated.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for regulating the orientation of liquid crystal molecules through special rod-shaped molecules or polymers thereof. First, special rod-shaped molecules or their polymers are used as dopants to dope with liquid crystal molecules respectively to form a uniform mixture. At the temperature of the melting point of the mixture, the mixture is sucked into the empty liquid crystal cell by capillary effect, and the liquid crystal molecules can be induced in the liquid crystal cell. orientation. This method uses the force between special rod-shaped molecules or their polymers and liquid crystal molecules to induce the orientation of liquid crystal molecules. Compared with the traditional method of using external conditions such as electric field and magnetic field to induce the orientation of liquid crystal molecules, this method is simpler and easier, and Has good stability. The invention has potential application prospects in the fields of liquid crystal display materials, photoelectric materials, biomedicine and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention discloses a method for regulating the orientation of liquid crystal molecules through special rod-shaped molecules or polymers thereof, belonging to the technical field of materials. Background technique [0002] Liquid crystal is a special form, which has both the fluidity of liquid and the anisotropy of crystal, so its application involves many fields such as physics and materials science. The birefringence, scattering, optical rotation and other properties of liquid crystals change with the arrangement of liquid crystal molecules, so they are widely used in display materials. Controlling the alignment of liquid crystal molecules is the key to liquid crystal display devices. The traditional method based on rubbing orientation seriously affects the use of materials due to the static electricity and dust generated during the rubbing process. With the continuous advancement of science, methods to control the orientation of liquid crystal...
