Additive manufacturing technology has significantly impacted contemporary industries due
to its ability to generate intricate computer-designed geometries. However, 3D-printed …

We have studied the effect of the polymer tilt angle for pretilt angle generation in nematic
liquid crystal, 4-cyano-4'-n-penthylbiphenyl (5CB) on rubbed polyimide surfaces. The …

AC electric fields cause three-dimensional orientational fluctuations (solitons) to form and
rapidly propagate in confined films of liquid crystals (LCs), offering the basis of a new class …

We have studied the static electricity and optical retardation generated by rubbing the
surfaces of polyimide (PI) and polyamide (PA) films. The static electricity increases with the …

In the present work, electro-optical and electronic properties of 4-n-pentyl-4′-
cyanobiphenyl (5CB) and 4′-cyano-4-n-pentyl-p-terphenyl (5CT) liquid crystal molecules …

The crystal structure and the molecular arrangement of 4′-pentyl-4-cyanobiphenyl (5CB) at
253 K are described. At 253 K the compound crystallized from pure ethanol as plates, as …

Since the high temperature response characteristics of nematic liquid crystal (NLC)
molecules, a compact optical fiber Sagnac loop inserted a segment of NLC film for …

We present a method for computing intermolecular energies of large molecules based on a
suitable fragmentation scheme, which allows one to express the complete interaction energy …

The effect of rubbing on the polyimide (PI) Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) surface-alignment films
has been successfully evaluated by observing the temperature dependence of the polar …

Uniformly aligned layers made of disodium cromoglycate (DSCG) or double‐stranded
deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) are fabricated. For this purpose, a thin liquid layer of a lyotropic …
