High-sensitivity aminoazobenzene chemisorbed monolayers for photoalignment of liquid crystals

We describe a new type of optically controlled liquid crystal alignment layer that demonstrates unprecedented performance. It consists of an aminoazobenzene-type material with a very simple molecular structure, which is derived from methyl red by a one-step synthesis. We have devised a method of for...
