Abstract
The influence of a magnetic field on the alignment was investigated in the discotic nematic (ND) phase of a triphenylene derivative. The uniform alignment was achieved when a magnetic field of 5T was applied parallel to the cell surface during the cooling process. The director was perpendicular to the surface when the cell was coated with polyimide alignment layers and parallel when the surface was uncoated.
