متن کاملEffect of ferroelectric BaTiO3 particles on the threshold voltage of a smectic A liquid crystal
The influence of small ferroelectric BaTiO3 particles on the planar-homeotropic transition threshold voltage in smectic A liquid crystals consisting of p-nitrophenyl p-decyloxybenzoate and 4-cyano-4'-pentylbiphenyl were studied by using capacitance-voltage (C-V) measurements. It was shown that the BaTiO3 particles significantly reduce the threshold voltage. The obtained result is explained by t...
متن کاملLayer Undulations in Smectic a Liquid Crystals
We investigate instabilities of smectic A liquid crystals when a magnetic field is applied in the direction parallel to smectic layers. We use the Landau-de Gennes model of smectic A liquid crystals to characterize the critical magnetic field. When smectic A liquid crystals are confined between parallel plates, we derive analytic estimates for the magnetic field strength, at which the undeforme...
متن کاملSmectic layer instabilities in liquid crystals.
Scientists aspire to understand the underlying physics behind the formation of instabilities in soft matter and how to manipulate them for diverse investigations, while engineers aim to design materials that inhibit or impede the nucleation and growth of these instabilities in critical applications. The present paper reviews the field-induced rotational instabilities which may occur in chiral s...
