Photoalignment of liquid crystals: basics and current trends
Abstract
The review describes the status of the studies and the recent achievements in the field of photoalignment of liquid crystals. An update classification of photoaligning materials and exposure schemes, and analyzes of the relationship between the molecular structure of the materials and characteristics of LC alignment are provided. In addition, bulk mediated photoalignment and combination of photoalignment with other alignment methods are discussed. Along with traditional, recently proposed applications of the photoalignment technique are considered.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
