Nanosecond electro-optics of nematic liquid crystal with negative dielectric anisotropy
Volodymyr Borshch, Sergij V. Shiyanovskii, Bing-Xiang Li +1
We study a nanosecond electro-optic response of a nematic liquid crystal in a geometry where an applied electric field modifies the tensor order parameter but does not…
Induced-charge electro-osmosis around metal and Janus spheres in water: Patterns of flow and breaking symmetries
Chenhui Peng, Israel Lazo, Sergij V. Shiyanovskii +1
We establish experimentally the flow patterns of induced-charge electro-osmosis (ICEO) around immobilized metallic spheres in aqueous electrolyte. The AC field modifies local elect…
Liquid crystal-enabled electroosmosis through spatial charge separation in distorted regions as a novel mechanism of electrokinetics
Israel Lazo, Chenhui Peng, Jie Xiang +2
Electrically-controlled dynamics of fluids and particles at microscales is a fascinating area of research with applications ranging from microfluidics and sensing to sorting of bio…
Electro-optic switching of dielectrically negative nematic through nanosecond electric modification of order parameter (NEMOP)
Bing-xiang Li, Volodymyr Borshch, Sergij V. Shiyanovskii +2
We present experimental studies of nanosecond electric modification of the order parameter (NEMOP) in a variety of nematic materials with negative dielectric anisotropy. The study…
Electrooptic response of chiral nematic with oblique helicoidal director
Jie Xiang, Sergij V. Shiyanovskii, Corrie Imrie +1
Electrically induced reorientation of liquid crystals (LCs) is a fundamental phenomenon widely used in modern technologies. We observe experimentally an electro-optic effect in a c…
