DEFINITION

Classification: 349/129

With plural alignments on the same substrate:

(under subclass 123) Subject matter wherein the alignment layer on one side of the liquid crystal includes two or more alignment directions, and/or two or more pretilt angles.

(1) Note. Included here are two different alignment layers used one on top of the other or alternating side-by-side. Also included herein are alternating alignment directions or pretilt angles; e.g., between pixel and nonpixel portions.

(2) Note. Different alignments can be formed by using different compositions for the two alignment layers.
