  • Abstract
    The flexoelectric effect in liquid crystals is investigated by means of Monte Carlo simulations for model pear-shaped molecules that interact through a combination of Gay–Berne and Lennard-Jones potentials. Flexoelectric coefficients are evaluated from microscopic expressions derived on the basis of a density functional approach.
