Sentence examples for planar alignment from inspiring English sources

For the nematic elastomers (NEs) with planar alignment, the cooling causes an increase in nematic order of the dangling mesogens independently of the cross-linker geometries.

The observed planar alignment and microscopic structure of the interface, which consists of ledges and terraces, indicate the presence of invariant line strain.

Based on minimization of radiant power of light, we found that, by utilizing the spontaneous shear effect, a liquid crystalline orientation with a tilted angle to the beam axis can be energetically more favorable than the most studied planar alignment.

A thin cell (10 μm) was prepared, consisting of two glass plates with planar alignment of the nematic liquid crystal containing a few percent of the photoactive azobenzene derivative.

Further, these films were found to be able to switch the orientation of liquid crystalline layers between homeotropic and planar alignment by the reversible photoisomerization of the azobenzene moieties.

Bilayers of polymer and liquid crystal (LC) of different alignments, show that an amorphous 5CB structure on the polymer surface was energetically most favorable, whereas homeotropic alignment had the next higher energy and planar alignment was the least favorable.

This beam type has particular interest since its flat shape limit is a laminate layer which is conversely the compact limit of infinite such beam planar alignments.

The formation of rather long-range ordered graphene layers for the prepared samples is believed to be mainly governed by the initial spatial planar alignments of benzene rings of phenolic resin monomers and those of PAHs molecules.

Since defects in planar spindle alignment have been shown to cause apoptotic cell death and delamination in wing disc epithelia [ 25 27], and SakOE neuroblasts also showed spindle mispositioning [ 6], we analyzed spindle positioning by measuring the angle formed between the main axis of the spindle and the apical surface.

So are here analytically provided the gmGos of planar n-alignments of parallel infinite beams with rectangular cross section (when embedded in media with properties that are at least isotropic transversally to the beams infinite direction) from having derived the miGo of such a "rectangular beam" with any cross section aspect ratio.

Analytical solutions show rather strong effect of spontaneous shear on bending of LCP strips with neither planar nor homeotropic alignment.
