Abstract
The two-dimensional presentation of the three-dimensional nematic liquid crystal structure can be visualized in various ways: by oriented rotational ellipsoids, bricks, cylinders, or sticks, representing either individual molecules or nematic director field. Here, we give a different approach: the three axes of Cartesian coordinate system are assigned with three colors (red for x-axis, green for y-axis and blue for z-axis). We use the proportional mixing of these colors for various directions of the nematic director. Using this technique, different structures of nematic liquid crystals can be visualized clearly, particularly when combined with representation of nematic director field with sticks.
