In nematic liquid crystal (NLC), the electrical polarization effect which is called flexoelectricity occurs under splay or bend distortion. Up to today, several kinds of measurement methods has been reported. Even when the subject NLC was the same, however, the obtained flexoelectric coefficients and sign was different. In this study, monochromatic ellipsometry was applied to measure the flexoelectric coefficient. The new measurement procedure is for the summation of flexoelectric coefficients under splay ($e_11$) and bend ($e_33$) deformation, i.e. $e_p$ (=$e_11$+$e_33$) and difference $e_n$ (=$e_11$-$e_33$). The optical phase difference $Delta$ through hybrid aligned NLC cell with alignment deformation caused by DC electric field is measured. The NLC cell used possesses planar and hybrid alignment regions. As for estimating $e_p$, the SOITE method which is insensitive to multiple interference and multiple reflection was applied, and for $e_n$, the dependence of the phase difference on the applied electric field at normal incidence was evaluated. It was demonstrated that the cell thickness and the flexoelectric coefficients $e_p$ and $e_n$ can be determined by numerical fitting procedure. |
