Abstract
AbstractDifferent growth modes of isolated cholesteric fingers of the second species (CF‐2) in an electric field at voltages near a coexistence line (V2) between cholesteric and nematic mesophases are in detail described. Videomicroscopy and computer image analysis were used for investigation of the pattern in polarized light. It is shown how a drift, a lengthening and a shape of fingers depend on the voltage at which the growth sets in and three typical scenarios are distinguished. (© 2009 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
