Order reconstruction and solution landscapes for liquid crystalline systems
Liquid crystals are the surprisingly less well known fourth phase of matter, sitting between the familiar solid and liquid phases. These materials combine fluidity with orientational and/or positional order, yielding surprising and desirable properties relevant for use in tailor-made applications. …

The interplay between order and disorder in cholesteric hydroxypropyl cellulose films
… by selective absorption. The formation of a cholesteric liquid crystalline phase is one route to achieve such structuring on the nanoscale. An especially promising candidate is hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC), a bio-sourced, bio-compatible and water-soluble polymer, which spontaneously …

Applications Of Linear And Nonlinear Optical Effects In Liquid Crystals
Liquid crystals have been a major subject of research for the past decades. Aside from the variety of structures they can form, they exhibit a vast range of optical phenomena. Many of these phenomena found applications in technology and became an essential part of it. In this dissertation thesis we …
