Solitons in Liquid Crystals (Partially Ordered Systems) - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Solitons are a well-known and intriguing aspect of nonlinear behavior in a continuous system such as a fluid: a wave propagates through the medium without distortion. Liquid crystals are highly ordered systems without a rigid, long-range structure. Solitons in liquid crystals (sometimes referred to as "walls") have a wide variety of remarkable properties that are becoming important for practical applications such as electroluminescent display. This book reviews the subject to be published and surveys of the existing literature, presenting new results as well. This research monograph on propagation and transmission, physical chemistry is intended for scientists and graduate students.
