Temperature Dependence of Anchoring Energy of MBBA on SiO-Evaporated Substrate

The temperature behaviour of the anchoring energy of nematic liquid crystal MBBA at the substrates with oblique SiO evaporation and director orientation at the interface have been studied by means of magnetic Freedericksz transition technique. The temperature dependence of the coefficients in the ph...

Summary:The temperature behaviour of the anchoring energy of nematic liquid crystal MBBA at the substrates with oblique SiO evaporation and director orientation at the interface have been studied by means of magnetic Freedericksz transition technique. The temperature dependence of the coefficients in the phenomenological model of surface anchoring energy has been determined.
