Interfacial Adsorbtion from Nematic Mixtures
The aim is to determine the amount of absorbtion of the one component of a mixture at the nemtic/air interface using neutron reflection. The host material in the mixture will be... -
Smectic Wetting at Nematic Surfaces
We have been studying the interaction between nematic liquid crystals and interfaces. It has been found that a surface that anchors the director in a perpendicular orientation...
