Abstract
Theoretical considerations and measurements on a thin plane parallel liquid crystal plate show that the fringes of equal inclination instead of the critical angle of total reflection must be used for a correct determination of the surface tilt angle. The importance of this effect with respect to the strength of anchoring in a liquid crystal hybrid layer is documented. Theoretische Betrachtungen und Messungen an einer dunnen planparallelen Flussigkristall-Platte zeigen, das die Streifen gleicher Neigung statt des Grenzwinkels der Totalreflexion fur eine korrekte Bestimmung des Oberflachen-Neigungswinkels benutzt werden mussen. Die Wichtigkeit dieses Effektes fur die Bestimmung der Verankerungsenergie wird am Beispiel einer Flussigkristall-Hybridzelle demonstriert.
