Long-time behavior of the azimuthal anchoring strength and easy axis gliding of nematic liquid crystal
We measure the azimuthal anchoring strength and easy axis gliding of the nematic 5CB on weakly anisotropic substrate. We study the anchoring evolution at a time scale ranging from a few minutes up to a few months. We separate approximately the elastic and the viscous response and we obtain the gliding velocity as a function of the applied torque. We discuss the observed gliding times and nonlinear gliding viscosity.
