Optical Textures and Orientational Structures in Cholesteric Droplets with Conical Boundary Conditions
Cholesteric droplets dispersed in polymer with conical boundary conditions have been studied. The director configurations are identified by the polarising microscopy technique. The axisymmetric twisted axial-bipolar configuration with the surface circular defect at the droplet’s equator is formed at...
