Blueprinting Nematic Glass: Systematically Constructing and Combining Active Points of Curvature for Emergent Morphology

Carl D. Modes, Mark Warner

Much recent progress has been made in the study of nematic solids, both glassy and elastomeric, particularly in the realm of stress-free, defect-driven deformation in thin sheets o…

Reflectivity of cholesteric liquid crystals with spatially varying pitch

S. Kutter, M. Warner

Solids with spatially varying photonic structure offer gaps to light of a wider range of frequencies than do simple photonic systems. We solve numerically the field distribution in…

Uniaxial and biaxial soft deformations of nematic elastomers

M. Warner, S. Kutter

We give a geometric interpretation of the soft elastic deformation modes of nematic elastomers, with explicit examples, for both uniaxial and biaxial nematic order. We show the imp…

Photonic band structure of highly deformable, self-assembling systems

Peter A. Bermel, Mark Warner

We calculate the photonic band structure at normal incidence of highly deformable, self-assembling systems - cholesteric elastomers subjected to external stress. Cholesterics displ…

Imprinted Networks as Chiral Pumps

Y. Mao, M. Warner

We investigate the interaction between a chirally imprinted network and a solvent of chiral molecules. We find, a liquid crystalline polymer network is preferentially swollen by on…

Linear hydrodynamics and viscoelasticity of nematic elastomers

E. M. Terentjev, M. Warner

We develop a continuum theory of linear viscoelastic response in oriented monodomain nematic elastomers. The expression for dissipation function is analogous to the Leslie-Ericksen…
