In this paper we report the fabrication of high quality polymer walls by using the monomer containing fluorine. We fabricated polymer walls with no phase retardation by using photo‐polymerization induced anisotropic phase separation of the mixture composed of LC and F‐monomer. Thanks to the anti‐adhesive property of fluoride, we could form high quality polymer walls with no light leakage. We measured electro‐optic characteristics of a twisted‐nematic LC cell whose polymer walls were fabricated by using the F‐monomer, which are compared with that fabricated by using the monomer without fluorine. The proposed fabrication method can be used to realize high‐contrast flexible liquid crystal displays without black matrix.
