Multi-domain Vertical Alignment Flexible Liquid Crystal Display based on photolithography and replica-Molding method has been demonstrated. In order to maintain a uniform cell gap between flexible substrate,the microstructures were fabricated with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) material by replica-molding method. The microstructures master were designed and fabricated using a photosensitive resin (SU-8) by photolithography. The microstructures of pixel-encapsulated walls enhance the mechanical strength to prevent the liquid crystal molecules flow in the bend state deformations. Besides, the elastomeric material, PDMS, provide weak surface energy and induce vertical alignment for liquid crystal spontanelusly without any surface treatment. The microstructure protrusions made by PDMS can provide multi-domain vertical alignment (MVA) effect with wide viewing angle and high contrast ratio. Therefore, this method could be implemented for achieving multi-domain vertical alignment on a flexible LCD applications. The flexible LCD have great stability reproducibility, durability and good electro-optical performances.
