Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Focusing on the optical properties of liquid crystals, this work delves into experiments on light scattering and theoretical calculations in nonlinear optics. It highlights how light scattering can effectively study the viscoelastic response, crucial for the display industry. The book covers both thermotropic and lyotropic systems, detailing thermal nonlinearities in cholesteric liquid crystals and unexpected phase transitions induced by laser beams. It is based on the Ph.D. research of Amit K Agarwal at the Raman Research Institute in India.
