Figure 1.1: The liquid crystalline phase. Liquid crystals consist of rod-like molecules thatcome in between anisotropic liquids and crystalline solids.
Figure 1.4: Homeotropic colloids and their assemblies. Sketches of (a) hedgehog (b) Saturnring (c) dipoles assemble in linearized fashion, red arrows denote direction of the dipole (d)Saturn rings assemble in zig-zag manner
Figure 1.5: The laboratory frame and the local frames of reference. (x, y, z) denotes thelaboratory frame, while n, and m are expressed in terms of θ, φ and ψ in the local frameof reference.
