Oblique light incidence method to study topological defects in nematic layers with conical boundary conditions

Abstract A polarization microscopy method to investigate the orientational structures and boojums formed in the chiral and achiral nematic layers under conical (tilted) boundary conditions has been developed. Oblique light incidence on nematic layer is used, due to which the phase difference between...
