Qualitative chirality effects on the Casimir-Lifshitz torque with liquid crystals
Wijnand Broer, Bing-Sui Lu, Rudolf Podgornik
We model a cholesteric liquid crystal as a planar uniaxial multilayer system, where the orientation of each layer differs slightly from that of the adjacent one. This allows us to…

Polydomain structure and its origins in isotropic-genesis nematic elastomers
Bing-Sui Lu, Fangfu Ye, Xiangjun Xing +1
We address the physics of nematic liquid crystalline elastomers randomly crosslinked in the isotropic state. To do this, we construct a phenomenological effective replica Hamiltoni…
