Three-dimensional modeling of chiral nematic texture evolution under electric switching
Vianney Gimenez-Pinto, Sajedeh Afghah, Robin L. B. Selinger
Chiral nematic liquid crystals exhibit both a helical planar ground state with uniform twist and a metastable defect-rich focal conic texture, and can be switched between the two m…

Theory of helicoids and skyrmions in confined cholesteric liquid crystals
Sajedeh Afghah, Jonathan V. Selinger
Cholesteric liquid crystals experience geometric frustration when they are confined between surfaces with anchoring conditions that are incompatible with the cholesteric twist. Bec…
