Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

A nonlinear unsteady-state mathematical model employing torque balance and Frank free energy according to the Leslie-Ericksen continuum theory is developed and implemented to simulate the performance of nematic liquid crystal biosensor films with aqueous interfaces. A transient liquid crystal-aqueous interface realignment is modeled using the Euler–Lagrange equation by changing the easy axis when the surfactant molecules at the interface are introduced. In our study, we evaluated the dynamics between bulk and interface by controlling surface properties of the interface, such as homeotropic anchoring energy and surface viscosity. In addition, transient optical interference and response time have been examined in this study. Our parametric study results indicated that both homeotropic anchoring energy and surface viscosity at the interface contribute to bulk reorientation. Furthermore, the obtained numerical results indicate that as homeotropic anchoring strength increases, the effective birefringence decreases more gradual due to the increasing surfactant concentration at the aqueous interface, consistent with available experimental observations. Our results have been validated and compared to experimental results from thin-film liquid crystal biosensors in this study.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
