Flüssigkristalle und ihre Anwendungen

CHIMIA, 1977
Liquid Crystals are Compounds whose molecules assume an order which lie intermediate between the almost perfect long-range order found in solid crystals and the statistical long-range disorder of an isotropic liquid.

Observation of lyotropic chromonic liquid crystals droplets with the perpendicular boundary condition [PDF]

, 2019
Department of PhysicsControlling anchoring conditions of liquid crystals (LCs) is crucial for the study of liquid crystals and development of liquid crystals-based displays and sensors. Although many studies have been made on thermotropic liquid crystals,

Octupolar Tensors for Liquid Crystals

, 2017
A third-order three-dimensional symmetric traceless tensor, called the \emph{octupolar} tensor, has been introduced to study tetrahedratic nematic phases in liquid crystals.

Photothermal Transport for Guiding Nanoparticles Through the Vitreous Humor

Advanced Science
Visual impairments affect over 2.2 billion people worldwide, yet delivering drugs to the posterior segment of the eye, including the retina, remains a major challenge. Intravitreal injection, the standard administration route, often results in suboptimal

Design and verification of an umbrella shaped narrow band - UWB antenna pair for MIMO applications using characteristic mode analysis

e-Prime: Advances in Electrical Engineering, Electronics and Energy
Using characteristic mode analysis (CMA), a pair of ultra-wideband (UWB) and narrow band antennas is made. The Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) configuration incorporates a circular monopole to attain UWB functionality, while an umbrella-shaped ...

Liquid Crystals in Electric Field

, 2003
We present a general theory of electric field effects in liquid crystals where the dielectric tensor depends on the orientation order. As applications, we examine (i) the director fluctuations in nematic states in electric field for arbitrary strength of

Fast polarization insensitive optical shutters using dual frequency liquid crystals [PDF]

, 2014
Most of the existing displays and optical shutters based on liquid crystals work in combination with linear polarizers. This implies that often more than half of the light is lost due to optical loss in the polarizers and/or the fact that the incoming ...

Derivation of a three-dimensional phase-field-crystal model for liquid crystals from density functional theory

, 2010
Using a generalized order parameter gradient expansion within density functional theory, we derive a phase-field-crystal model for liquid crystals composed by apolar particles in three spatial dimensions.
