  • Abstract
    We investigated vertical alignment of liquid crystal (LC) on SiOC films deposited at the room temperature. We found from the electrostatic force microscopy (EFM) data that Coulomb interaction between LC and the ionized film surface has a dominant effect upon LC alignment on inorganic film surfaces by the ion beam exposure.
