A synthesized photo-functionalized amphiphile (abbreviated as ADMA1) was successfully applied as a robust photo-switchable LC alignment layer by self-assembly and photo-isomerization without the conventional polymer-based liquid crystal (LC) alignment process. The LC alignment layer constructed by directly adding photo-functionalized amphiphiles into LC media significantly cuts the manufacturing cost as well as opens new doors for the fabrication of novel electro-optical devices.
