Nematic and Cholesteric Liquid Crystals: Concepts and Physical Properties Illustrated by Experiments

by Pawel Pieranski and Patrick Oswald

Liquid crystals allow us to perform experiments that provide insight into fundamental problems of modern physics, such as phase transitions, frustration, elasticity, hydrodynamics, defects, growth phenomena, and optics (linear and non linear). This excellent volume meets the need for an up-to-date text on liquid crystals.
