Rotational viscosity of a liquid crystal mixture: a fully atomistic molecular dynamics study

Fully atomistic molecular dynamics (MD) simulations at 293, 303 and 313~K have been performed for the four-component liquid crystal mixture, E7, using the software package Material Studio. Order parameters and orientational time correlation functions (TCFs) were calculated from MD trajectories. The rotational viscosity coefficients (RVCs) of the mixture were calculated using the Nemtsov--Zakharov and Fialkowski methods based on statistical-mechanical approaches. Temperature dependences of RVC and density were discussed in detail. Reasonable agreement between the simulated and experimental values was found.     

基于符号方法的模拟电路可测度分析

现有电路可测度符号分析方法在低可测度电路故障诊断中没有考虑元件故障模糊组的影响。可测度分析时需要计算所有元件参数组合的可测度,但实质上其中部分参数组合的可测度是相同的,不必重复计算。鉴于上述问题,在可测度符号分析方法的基础上,提出根据系数依赖矩阵划分元件故障模糊组,将各个模糊组中的元件参数赋值后计算电路可测度。该方法减少了符号法可测度分析的计算量,适用于模拟电路的自动测试与故障诊断。

Micro-patterned liquid crystal Pancharatnam-Berry axilens

A liquid crystal Pancharatnam–Berry(PB) axilens is proposed and fabricated via a digital micro-mirrordevice-based photo-patterning system. The polarization-dependent device behaves as an axilens for a lefthanded circularly polarized incident beam, for which an optical ring is focused with a long focal depth in the transverse direction at the output, and an anti-axilens for a right-handed circularly polarized incident beam,for which an optical ring gradually expands at the output. The modification of the size and the sharpness of the diffracted ring beam is demonstrated by encoding a positive(negative) PB lens term into the director expression of a PB(anti-)axicon.
