STRUCTURE FORMATION OF COLLOIDS IN NEMATIC LIQUID CRYSTALS
We investigated the behaviour of colloidal particles suspended in nematic liquid crystals. These colloidal particles interact through elastic deformation of the nematic director field which can result in nontrivial collective behavior, leading to the formation of spatially modulated structures. In t...
