The isotropic-nematic transition in charged liquid crystals
J.M. Deutsch et N.D. GoldenfeldCavendish Laboratory, Madingley Road, Cambridge CB3 OHE, England
Abstract
We discuss the phase diagram of a concentrated system of rods interacting via a Coulomb potential, and demonstrate the existence of a first-order isotropic-nematic transition.
Résumé
