| Abstract: | Abstract— A highly bendable liquid‐crystal display was fabricated by using a multi‐functional elastomer substrate of self‐aligning LC molecules without any surface treatment. One of the two substrates is a plastic substrate while the other is a multi‐functional elastomer substrate produced by a replica‐molding technique. The multi‐functional elastomer substrate has pixel‐encapsulating walls that serve as spacers and provide mechanical stability and reproducibility against bending deformations. The highly bendable LCD demonstrates great flexibility, durability, and excellent electro‐optic performances in a highly bent state. |
