反射对称拓扑的弹性能

Elastic energy for reflection-symmetric topologies

A. Majumdar, J. M. Robbins, M. Zyskin

摘要:

多面体域中的向列相液晶是液晶显示器的原型,可以用切向边界条件下的单位矢量场来描述。这里我们考虑矩形棱柱的情况。对于具有反射对称拓扑结构的构型,我们导出了一个新的一常数弹性能的下界。对于某些拓扑,称为共形和反共形,下界同意以前的结果。对于其余的拓扑,称为非共形,新的界限是一个改进。对于非共形拓扑结构,我们推导出一个上限,它不同于下限的一个因素,只取决于纵横比的棱镜。

英文摘要:

Nematic liquid crystals in a polyhedral domain, a prototype for bistable displays, may be described by a unit-vector field subject to tangent boundary conditions. Here we consider the case of a rectangular prism. For configurations with reflection-symmetric topologies, we derive a new lower bound for the one-constant elastic energy. For certain topologies, called conformal and anticonformal, the lower bound agrees with a previous result. For the remaining topologies, called nonconformal, the new bound is an improvement. For nonconformal topologies we derive an upper bound, which differs from the lower bound by a factor depending only on the aspect ratios of the prism.
