Linear and Nonlinear Optics of Confined Chiral Liquid Crystals at Weak Surface Anchoring

Non-Singular Walls in Cano-Grandjean Wedge

“…The availability of the N ¼ 1 -line within the framework [3][4][5] can be considered as indication on the deviating of the actual surface anchoring potential from the R-P potential. (N ¼ 1, 2, 3) show that the actual surface anchoring potential differs from Rapini-Papoular surface anchoring potential.…”

“…Recently, such structure was considered for a case of weak anchoring surfaces [3][4][5]. The case of strong anchoring was investigated in [6].…”
