Deformation of nematic liquid crystals in an electric field
The behaviour of liquid crystal materials used in display devices is discussed. The underlying continuum theory developed by Frank, Ericksen and Leslie for describing this behaviour is reviewed. Particular attention is paid to the approximations and extensions relevant to existing device technology...
