TRANSFER MATERIAL, PROCESS FOR PRODUCING A LAMINATED STRUCTURE HAVING A PATTERNED OPTICALLY ANISOTROPIC LAYER AND PHOTOSENSITIVE POLYMER LAYER, AND LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY DEVICE

摘要

A transfer material comprising an optically anisotropic layer formed of a liquid crystalline composition comprising a monomer having an acidic group and/or a monomer which generates a monomer having an acidic group by an action of an acid or a base, and a photosensitive polymer layer, which is useful for forming an optically anisotropic layer in a liquid crystal cell, is provided. A process for easily producing a laminated structure having a patterned optically anisotropic layer, which comprises the following steps [1] and [2]: [1] subjecting the transfer material to patterned light exposure using photomask; and [2] removing the non-exposed parts of the transfer material by development with an aqueous alkaline solution, is also provided.
