Abstract

Microgroove (MG) substrate using a ruling engine was evaluated geometrically and optically. As the result, it was confirmed that the MG substrate had periodic structure and uniform molecular alignment was observed partially. Precise control of the ruling engine promises uniform molecular alignment of LCDs.
