Multiple minimum energy paths and scenarios of unwinding transitions in chiral nematic liquid crystals
Semen S. Tenishchev, Alexei D. Kiselev, Aleksei V. Ivanov +1
We apply the minimum energy paths (MEPs) approach to study the helix unwinding transition in chiral nematic liquid crystals. A mechanism of the transition is determined by a MEP pa…

Energy surface and minimum energy paths for Fréedericksz transitions in bistable cholesteric liquid crystals
A. V. Ivanov, P. F. Bessarab, E. V. Aksenova +2
The multidimensional energy surface of a cholesteric liquid crystal in a planar cell is investigated as a function of spherical coordinates determining the director orientation. Mi…
