Realignment of ferroelectric nematic by photoinduced electric field
Sathyanarayana Paladugu, Oleksandr Kurochkin, Ruslan Kravchuk +5
Liquid crystal displays (LCDs) employ thin pixels of a paraelectric nematic, confined between two glass plates with transparent indium tin oxide (ITO) electrodes. A voltage applied…

Polar and apolar light-induced alignment of ferroelectric nematic at photosensitive polymer substrate
Ruslan Kravchuk, Oleksandr Kurochkin, Vassili G. Nazarenko +4
Surface alignment of a recently discovered ferroelectric nematic liquid crystal (NF) is usually achieved by buffed polymer films, which produce a unidirectional polar alignment of…
