Homeotropic alignment — In liquid crystals, homeotropic alignment is one of the ways of alignment of liquid crystalline molecules. Homeotropic alignment is the state in which a rod like liquid crystalline molecule aligns perpendicularly to the substrate. In the… … Wikipedia
Dynamic Scattering Mode — George Heilmeier proposed the dynamic scattering effect which causes a strong scattering of light when the electric field applied to a special liquid crystal mixture exceeds a threshold value. A DSM cell requires the following ingredients: * a… … Wikipedia
Homogeneous alignment — In liquid crystals, Homogeneous alignment sometimes called Planar alignment this is the state of alignment of molecules which is opposite to homeotropic alignment. The molucules here align parallel to a substrate.For planar alignment polyimides… … Wikipedia
