      Nematic liquid crystals on sinusoidal channels: the zigzag instability 

      Romero Enrique, José Manuel; Silvestre, Nuno M.; Telo Da Gama, Margarida Maria (IOP Publishing, 2017)
      Substrates which are chemically or topographically patterned induce a variety of liquid crystal textures. The response of ...

      Pattern-induced anchoring transitions in nematic liquid crystals 

      Rojas Gómez, Oscar A.; Romero Enrique, José Manuel; Silvestre, Nuno M.; Telo Da Gama, Margarida Maria (IOP Publishing, 2016)
      In this paper we revisit the problem of a nematic liquid crystal in contact with patterned substrates. The substrate is ...
