From: Bidirectional rotation control of a carbon fiber in nematic liquid crystal using AC electric field
Time-dependent rotational angle variation of CF with decreasing electric field. First, we applied an electric field of 0.045 V/\(\mathrm{\upmu m}\) and waited for the CF to reach equilibrium. Next, we changed the strength of the electric field to 0.035 V/\(\mathrm{\upmu m}\). (a) Images with time lapse. 0 s corresponds to the moment the electric field strength was changed. (b) The angle and the angular velocity with time. The red dotted line indicates the moment at which CF reaches 0°.
