By employing a nano‐engineering approach, nano‐structered polymers were designed, synthesised and used as materials for alignment layers in LCDs. Such materials make possible to control the molecular tilt angle in a broad range, from 0° to 90°, and they seems to enable the control of the anchoring strength as well.
