摘要

We review the important features of LC orientation for the alignment layer, namely, production method, alignment mechanisms, and required properties. Photoalignment, which could eliminate the disadvantages of the rubbing method is explored. Applicable materials and techniques for photoalignment are also examined. Many materials for photoalignment layers have been proposed, but polyimide‐based materials are commonly used because of their transparency and insulation properties, which are needed for optical electronic devices. Furthermore, photoisomerization, photodimerization, and photodecomposition as photoalignment methods are reviewed, and specific photoreactive groups and alignment mechanisms are used to induce LC alignment. In summary, polyimides cause photodecomposition and have the following disadvantages; (1) requirement of relatively short‐wavelength ultraviolet (UV) irradiation, (2) difficulty in reorienting polymer chains owing to their rigid polymer matrix, and (3) low‐photo reactivities. The solutions for each disadvantage are already proposed, but the required properties should be determined during material design. Polyimide‐based materials introduced with the azobenzene and cinnamate groups are proposed and found to have the ability of fulfilling the required properties. The mechanism of polyimide photodecomposition is not fully understood. It likely has the advantage in terms of LC alignment stability because of the absence of E/Z isomerization. Therefore, the alignment mechanism and availabilities should be further explored.
