Landau–de Gennes theory
text:
In physics, Landau–de Gennes theory describes the NI transition, i.e., phase transition between nematic liquid crystals and isotropic liquids, which is based on the classical Landau's theory and was developed by Pierre-Gilles de Gennes in 1969. The phenomonological theory uses the Q tensor as an order parameter in expanding the free energy density.
