Liquid crystal technology is one of the most important developments in todays world. Materials can have their molecules realigned, using magnetic or electrical fields, and in the process acquire the properties of both solids and liquids. These new materials are also inexpensive, occupy small spaces, and use little energy. As a result, liquid crystal materials are increasingly used in everyday objects: notebook computer screens, flat screen TVs, stereo displays, 3D computer chips, and displays on phones and digital watches. This book brings together the most important research from this field in the last 15 years, presenting a timely reference for professionals in chemistry and physics, and those leading institutions and businesses that work with cuttingedge technologies. The book covers both theory and practice, explaining the processes that govern liquid crystals and their scientific and technological applications. Extensive references to papers and reviews on critical aspects of this technology are included. An introductory chapter gives readers a general background, followed by chapters from leading experts on such topics as synthesis and new materials, theory and computation, phase structures and transitions, ferroelectrics and external field effects, interfaces and surfaces, liquid crystal polymers, addressing schemes, communication devices, optical linear phenomena in liquid crystals, and bistable displays. Anyone who works with liquid crystals will find this an indispensable reference.
