Flexoelectric-induced voltage shift in a weak anchoring hybrid aligned nematic fiquid crystai cell is investigated theoretically. Based on the elastic theory of liquid crystal and the variation method, the equations for the bulk and the boundary of the cell are derived. By computer simulation, the d...
