The doping of a liquid crystalline (LC) photoemissive compound into a LC polymethacrylate with photoemissive side groups induces repeatable changes in the photoemission wavelength upon mechanical grinding and thermal annealing. The color changes observed in a handwritten pattern demonstrate the successful induction of anisotropic photoemission behavior in a LC composite polymeric film parallel to the grinding direction. The LC characteristics of the composite films play an important role in the directional selectivity of the polarized mechanoinduced color change.
