Chiral symmetry-breaking dynamics in the phase transformation of nematic droplets
Fred Fu, Nasser Mohieddin Abukhdeir
Dynamic simulations of the isotropic-nematic phase transformation of liquid crystal droplets under homeotropic anchoring are found to predict chiral symmetry-breaking dynamics. The…

Formation and field-driven dynamics of nematic spheroids
Fred Fu, Nasser Mohieddin Abukhdeir
Emerging technologies based on liquid crystal (LC) materials increasingly leverage the presence of nanoscale defects, unlike the canonical application of LCs -- LC displays. The in…
