| Abstract: | Summary The structures of the interface between an isotropic liquid and a nematic liquid crystal and also between different uniaxial
nematic phases are studied. It is shown that, at a planar orientation in the case of the nematic-isotropic liquid interface
and also at a mutually orthogonal orientation of the director in the case of two nematic phases, the interface has the structure
of a biaxial nematic liquid crystal.
