Texture transformations and orientational properties of lyotropic nematics in magnetic field
Özet
Dynamics of changes of the morphological properties and processes of orientation in lyotropic nematic mesophases by application of external magnetic field have been investigated in detail. The dynamics of changes of the optical birefringence values in nematic-calamitic mesophase vs. time has been determined. The optical mappings of nonequilibrium magnetically induced textures, which have been observed for this mesophase during orientational process, and changes of birefringence vs. time are presented.
