Abstract

We synthesized a new copoly (PM4Ch-ChMA) copoly(poly(4-methacryloyloxy) chalcone-cholesteryl methacrylate) having chalconyl and cholesteryl moiety for homeotropic liquid crystal(LC) alignment. Pretilt angles of nematic(N) LC generated by linearly polarized UV exposure on the copolymer surfaces were investigated. Good thermal stabilities of the synthesized copolymer were obtained by TGA (Thermogravimetric Analysis) measurement. Pretilt angles of the NLC decreased with increasing UV exposure time on the copolymer surfaces. We consider that the pretilt angle of the NLC is attributed to increased chalcone by increased UV exposure time. High pretilt angle of the NLC is attributed to increased chalcone by increased UV exposure time. High pretilt angle of 81$^{\circ}$was observed after the UV exposure for 3 min.
