Density functional theory study of the nematic-isotropic transition in an hybrid cell
I. Rodriguez-Ponce, J. M. Romero-Enrique, L. F. Rull
We have employed the Density Functional Theory formalism to investigate the nematic-isotropic capillary transitions of a nematogen confined by walls that favor antagonist orientati…

Orientational transitions in a nematic confined by competing surfaces
I. Rodriguez-Ponce, J. M. Romero-Enrique, L. F. Rull
The effect of confinement on the orientational structure of a nematic liquid crystal model has been investigated by using a version of density-functional theory (DFT). We have focu…
