Polarity-dependent dielectric torque in nematic liquid crystals
Mingxia Gu, Sergij V. Shiyanovskii, Oleg D. Lavrentovich
The dielectric dispersion in the uniaxial nematic liquid crystals affects the switching dynamics of the director, as the dielectric torque is determined by not only the present val…
Optical trapping, manipulation, and 3D imaging of disclinations in liquid crystals and measurement of their line tension
Ivan I. Smalyukh, Bohdan I. Senyuk, Sergij V. Shiyanovskii +4
We demonstrate optical trapping and manipulation of defects and transparent microspheres in nematic liquid crystals (LCs). The three-dimensional director fields and positions of th…
Effect of Director Distortions on Polymer-Liquid Crystal Phase Separation
D. Voloschenko, O. P. Pishnyak, S. V. Shiyanovskii +1
We study photopolymerization in a low-molecular weight liquid crystal with non-uniform director gradients. Phase separation results in spatially non-uniform distribution of polymer…
