摘要
A kinetics approach is developed for the geometrically nonlinear analysis of photo-induced wrinkling of glassy twist nematic films on soft elastic substrates.In this way,the problem is reduced to finding the steady state of an overdamped evolution system according to a kinetic law,rather than directly solving the coupled nonlinear equations.This enables one to account for the complicated director distribution and obtain the precise wrinkling morphology of the film.Though the approach proposed here is for a twist nematic film,it can be extended to study glassy nematic films with other director distributions.
