Abstract: | The electrical and optical characteristics of nematic liquid crystal (NLC) cells and their dependence on the thickness of
an amorphous hydrogenated carbon (a-C:H) alignment layer have been studied. An increase in the a-C:H layer thickness favors
enhancement of the screening of a bias voltage applied to this layer, which is manifested by an increase in the threshold
voltage of the electrooptical splay effect. This is accompanied by a decrease in the initial (pretilt) director angle, which
is evidence for an increase in the anchoring energy due to the field of space charge localized at the interface. |
