Abstract: | To study the nonlinear phenomena in rod-like magnetic liquid crystals (RMLCs), this paper establishes the dynamic model of molecular motion when giving a twisting disturbance to the molecules under external magnetic field. We find the twist of the molecules under magnetic field can be propagated in the form of a traveling wave. The dynamic equation of the molecular twisting we derived satisfies the form of Sine-Gordon equation. We obtain two solutions of the Sine-Gordon equation by theoretical calculation: the kink and anti-kink solitons and breathers. The characteristics of those solitons and breathers are discussed. |
