Abstract

We have fabricated the Pixel-Isolated Liquid Crystal (PILC) mode using micro-supporting structures and anisotropic phase separation method. Since the cell gap is sustained by polymer walls and the phase separated polymer layer, this novel structure shows good electro-optic properties having stability against external mechanical distortion. The mechanical stability of this configuration against external forces like pressure and bending is confirmed to be useful for diverse flexible display applications.
