Introduction to liquid crystals

Journal of Molecular Liquids · 2018 · Vol. 267 · pp. 520–541

Abstract

This pedagogical overview of liquid crystals is based on lectures for postgraduate students given at the International Max Planck Research School “Modeling of Soft Matter”. I am delighted to dedicate it to my scientific advisor, Prof. Yuriy Reznikov, thus acknowledging his valuable contribution to my life.
