Non-linear optical measurement of the twist elastic constant in thermotropic and DNA lyotropic chiral nematics
Abstract Throughout the whole history of liquid crystals science, the balancing of intrinsic elasticity with coupling to external forces has been the key strategy for most application and investigation. While the coupling of the optical field to the nematic director is at the base of a wealth of tho...
