Seeding of the nematic-isotropic phase transition by an electric field [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
In this paper, we use a relatively simple continuum model to investigate the effects of dielectric inhomogeneity within confined liquid crystal cells. Specifically, we consider, in planar, cylindrical and spherical geometries, the stability of a nematic ...
