Periodic splay Fréedericksz transitions in a ferroelectric nematic
Abstract Electric field-induced splay of molecular orientation, called the Fréedericksz transition, is a fundamental electro-optic phenomenon in nonpolar nematic liquid crystals. In a ferroelectric nematic NF with a spontaneous electric polarization $${{\bf{P}}}$$ P , the splay is suppressed since i...
