摘要

通过把Berreman近似下任意形状的表面沟槽用傅里叶级数展开

写成正弦函数和的形式

将Fukuda 等人的理论应用于双轴向列相液晶中

考虑表面弹性项的作用后得到了任意形状的沟槽对双轴液晶产生的方位锚定能。在一定的近似条件下得到约化锚定能随着沟槽的方向与液晶主指向矢之间的夹角的变化情况

讨论了双轴弹性常数对液晶易取向方向的影响。

Abstract

Under the approximation of Berreman

any grooved surface with arbitrary shape can be described in terms of Fourier series. Based on the theory of Fukuda et al

the expression of anchoring energy with an additional term was obtained

taking into the surfacelike elastic term in biaxial nematic liquid crystal. The figures of reduced anchoring energies versus the angle between the direction of the grooves and main director were simulated under the different values of surfacelike elastic constant in certain cases and the effect of biaxial elastic constant on easy axes was discussed.
