Geometry and Anchoring Effects on Elliptic Cylinder Domains of Nematic Phases

Compounds which exhibit liquid crystal phases have been widely used in display technology. The majority of display applications utilize the nematic liquid crystal phase, which is a liquid-like phase which has partial orientational order at the molecular level. The nematic phase exhibits birifringenc...
