Complex liquid crystal superstructures induced by periodic photo-alignment at top and bottom substrates

The formation of nematic liquid crystal (LC) superstructures in cells with non-uniform photo-alignment at the confining substrates is studied experimentally and by simulations. An interference pattern of left- and right-handed circularly polarized light is used to define the alignment at both substr...
