Non-monotonous shear rate dependence of dielectric relaxation frequency of a nematic liquid crystal revealed by rheo-dielectric spectroscopy
K. Anaswara Das, M. Praveen Kumar, Surajit Dhara
Dielectric relaxation of materials provides important information on the polarisation dynamics at different time scales. We study the dielectric relaxation of a nematic liquid crys…
