Detection of alignment changes at the open surface of a confined nematic liquid crystal sensor
An open surface optical sensor based on nematic liquid crystal contained in square shaped wells was fabricated. Structures and structural transitions associated with changes in surface anchoring conditions were optically detected using polarizing microscopy. A phenomenological Landau-de Gennes model...
