| Abstract(in English) | Tilt angles of liquid crystal molecules, 5CB, have been investigated in the liquid crystal cells with the polyimide (PI) LB alignment films on the aluminum electrodes using the attenuated total reflection (ATR) measurement. The ATR properties were evaluated from the surface plasmon polariton and the guided wave excitation modes when various DC voltages were applied to the cell. The tilt angles of the liquid crystal molecules were calculated by fitting the theoretical ATR curves to the experimental ones using some kinds of models. Furthermore, the electric field intensities in the cell were calculated at several incident angles of the laser beam in the ATR curves. The ATR measurement is very useful to evaluate aligning properties of liquid crystal molecules in liquid crystal cells. |
