摘要：
Computer modelling has been used to study the mechanism by which multidomain texture is formed in liquid-crystal cells with dielectric protrusions deposited on top of the electrodes. Both nonchiral liquid crystals and liquid crystals with a chiral additive are discussed. It is shown that both distortion of the director field and distortion of the electric field play an important role in the formation of multidomain structure. (C) 2000 The Optical Society of America.
