Recently, plano-convex spherical lens-shaped liquid crystal (LC) sessile droplets with
positive dielectric anisotropy were studied in magnetic and/or AC electric fields. Here, we …

Using polarization microscopy, we have investigated the director configurations of droplets
of a nematic liquid crystal with negative dielectric anisotropy and perpendicular boundary …

We have identified the director configurations n (r) of nematic droplets subjected to electric
fields under conditions of negative dielectric anistropy and parallel surface anchoring. Drops …

Lens-shaped liquid crystal samples have the potential for their use in tunable multifocal
optical lenses. In previous observations (Phys. Rev. Research, 2, 023261 (2020) and J. Mol …

We report observations on nematic droplets of a dual-frequency addressable nematic
mixture using polarization microscopy. When low frequency (f= 100 Hz) electric fields are …

We study the director configurations of nematic liquid crystal (NLC) droplets with
homeotropic anchoring in a magnetic field and report observation of a magnetic-field-driven …

The first observation of a new director orientation within nematic droplets is reported. This
orientation consists of the nematic director field arranged concentrically around a central …

Nematic droplets suspended in the isotropic phase of the same substance were subjected to
alternating electrical fields of varying frequency. To keep the system at a constant …

This study reports on the director-field configurations of a closed-cylinder nematic liquid
crystal with negative dielectric anisotropy in an external electric field. Raising the applied …

We have studied theoretically the reorientation process induced by the electric field inside a
bipolar nematic droplet with rigidly fixed poles. Computer simulation has revealed the …
