The Frederiks effect and related phenomena in ferronematic materials
Abstract. Using continuum and statistical mechanical theories, we study the switching properties of a ferronematic in a nematic liquid crystal cell subject to homeotropic boundary conditions at the cell and particle walls. An external magnetic field normal to the cell plane is also imposed. At low f...
