    Notes: We have modeled the switching behavior of a twisted nematic cell using the one-dimensional Ericksen–Leslie equations of nematodynamics. We compare the modeling results with experimental data on transmission versus time. Excellent agreement between experiment and model is achieved at all voltages and viewing angles. To achieve this agreement, only two viscosity parameters are required; these are combinations of the Leslie viscosity coefficients, namely, α3−α2 (the rotational viscosity) and α4+α5. A fast and stable adaptive numerical algorithm, based on an effective viscosity parameter, is developed for solving the equations of motion. The viscosity parameters obtained from fitting the flow experiments are in good agreement with those obtained from dynamic light-scattering measurements. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Cyanobiphenyl liquid crystals absorb strongly in the ultraviolet. These absorption bands are highly dichroic. The dichroic ratio changes as a function of order parameter and orientation of the liquid crystals. Plots of the dichroic ratio as a function of film thickness demonstrate that the polymer alignment layer not only imposes an orientation on the liquid crystal director but also lowers the order parameter of the liquid crystal near the polymer surface. A sharp decrease in dichroic ratio occurs at film thicknesses near 35 nm, suggesting a phase transition which may be caused by the appearance of a biaxial phase or smectic layering at the air interface. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.
