Exploration of the sum of flexoelectric coef ficients of nematic liquid crystals

We present a theoretical calculation of the dependence of reflectivity Rpp of the improved fully leaky waveguide geometry,which comprises pyramid,matching fluid,and strongly anchored hybrid aligned nematic liquid crystal(NLC) cell on the internal angle.The calculation is based on the multi layer optical theory and the elastic theory of liquid crystals.For different sums of flexoelectric coefficients e11 and e33,the curve of Rpp moves a distance to the left or the right relative to the case of ignoring the flexoelectric effect and the distance of the movement varies with different flexoelectric coefficients.Consequently,the sum of flexoelectric coefficients can be explored by measuring the distance of the movement.     

First-principles investigation on the elastic stability and thermodynamic properties of Ti2SC

Using Vanderbilt-type plane-wave ultrasoft pseudopotentials within the generalized gradient approximation（GGA） in the frame of density functional theory（DFT）,we have investigated the crystal structures,elastic,and thermodynamic properties for Ti2SC under high temperature and high pressure.The calculated pressure dependence of the lattice volume is in excellent agreement with the experimental results.The calculated structural parameter of the Ti atom experienced a subtle increase with applied pressures and the increase suspended under higher pressures.The elastic constants calculations demonstrated that the crystal lattice is still stable up to 200 GPa.Investigations on the elastic properties show that the c axis is stiffer than the a axis,which is consistent with the larger longitudinal elastic constants（C 33,C 11） relative to transverse ones（C 44,C 12,C 13）.Study on Poisson＇s ratio confirmed that the higher ionic or weaker covalent contribution in intra-atomic bonding for Ti2SC should be assumed and the nature of ionic increased with pressure.The ratio（B/G） of bulk（B） and shear（G） moduli as well as B/C 44 demonstrated the brittleness of Ti2SC at ambient conditions and the brittleness decreased with pressure.Moreover,the isothermal and adiabatic bulk moduli displayed opposite temperature dependence under different pressures.Again,we observed that the Debye temperature and Gru篓neisen parameter show weak temperature dependence relative to the thermal expansion coefficient,entropy,and heat capacity,from which the pressure effects are clearly seen.     

Determination of elastic, piezoelectric, and dielectric constants of an R:BaTiO3 single crystal by Brillouin scattering

From the sound velocity measured using the Brillouin scattering technique, the elastic, piezoelectric, and dielectric constants of a high-quality monodomain tetragonal Rh：BaTiO3 single crystal are determined at room temperature. The elastic constants are in fairly good agreement with those of the BaTiO3 single crystal, measured previously by Brillouin scattering and the low-frequency equivalent circuit methods. However, their electromeehanical properties are significantly different. Based on the sound propagation equations and these results, the directional dependence of the compressional modulus and the shear modulus of Rh：BaTiO3 in the （010） plane is investigated. Some properties of sound propagation and electromechanical coupling in the crystal are discussed.

Effect of rotation in generalized thermoelastic solid under the influence of gravity with an overlying infinite thermoelastic fluid

The present problem is concerned with the study of deformation of a rotating generalized thermoelastic solid with an overlying infinite thermoelastic fluid due to different forces acting along the interface under the influence of gravity.The components of displacement,force stress,and temperature distribution are first obtained in Laplace and Fourier domains by applying integral transforms,and then obtained in the physical domain by applying a numerical inversion method.Some particular cases are also discussed in the context of the problem.The results are also presented graphically to show the effect of rotation and gravity in the medium.
