The '''Fréedericksz transition''' is simply a transition from a uniform director configuration to a deformed director configuration upon application of a sufficiently strong magnetic or electric field, note that it is not a [[phase transition]], because at any point in the [[liquid crystals]] the amount of order of the molecules relative to one another remains the same. <ref>{{harvnb|Collings, P,J|Liquid Crystals Nature's Delicate Phase of Matter|2002|pp=42–43}}</ref> Below a certain field threshold the [[liquid crystal#Director|director]] remains undistorted. As the field value is gradually increased from this threshold, the director begins to twist until its aligned with the field. In this fashion the Fréedericksz transition can occur in three different configurations known as the twist, bend, and splay geometries. The [[phase transition]] was first observed by Fréedericksz and Repiewa in 1927.<ref>{{harvnb|Fréedericksz|Repiewa|1927|pp=532–546}}</ref> In this first experiment of theirs, one of the walls of the cell was concave so as to produce a variation in thickness along the cell.<ref>{{harvnb|Priestley|Wojtowicz|Sheng|1975|p=115}}</ref> The phase transition is named in honor of the Russian physicist [[Vsevolod Frederiks]].

===Twist Geometry===
[[File:TwistGeometry.jpg|thumb|right|A diagram showing the twist geometry, where <math>E_t</math> is the threshold electric field.]]If a nematic liquid crystal that is confined between two parallel plates that induce a planar anchoring is placed in a sufficiently high constant electric field then the director will be distorted. If under zero field the director aligns along the x-axis then upon application of an electric field along the y-axis the director will be given by:
:<math>\mathbf{\hat{n}}=n_x\mathbf{\hat{x}}+n_y\mathbf{\hat{y}}</math>
:<math>n_x=\cos{\theta(z)}</math>
:<math>n_y=\sin{\theta(z)}</math>
Under this arrangement the [[distortion free energy density]] becomes:
:<math>\mathcal{F}_{d}=\frac{1}{2}K_2\left(\frac{d\theta}{dz}\right)^2</math>
The total energy per unit volume stored in the distortion and the electric field is given by:
:<math>U=\frac{1}{2}K_2\left(\frac{d\theta}{dz}\right)^2-\frac{1}{2}\epsilon_0\Delta\chi_eE^2\sin^2{\theta}</math>
The free energy per unit area is then:
:<math>F_A=\int_0^d\frac{1}{2}K_2\left(\frac{d\theta}{dz}\right)^2-\frac{1}{2}\epsilon_0\Delta\chi_eE^2\sin^2{\theta}\,dz \,</math>
Minimizing this using [[calculus of variations]] gives:
:<math>\left(\frac{\partial U}{\partial \theta}\right)-\frac{d}{dz}\left(\frac{\partial U}{\partial\left(\frac{d\theta}{dz}\right)}\right)=0</math>
:<math>K_2\left(\frac{d^2\theta}{dz^2}\right)+\epsilon_0\Delta\chi_eE^2\sin{\theta}\cos{\theta}=0</math>
Rewriting this in terms of <math>\zeta=\frac{z}{d}</math> and <math>\xi_d=d^{-1}\sqrt{\frac{K_2}{\epsilon_0\Delta\chi_eE^2}}</math> where <math>d</math> is the separation distance between the two plates results in the equation simplifying to:
:<math>\xi_d^2\left(\frac{d^2\theta}{d\zeta^2}\right)+\sin{\theta}\cos{\theta}=0</math>
By multiplying both sides of the differential equation by <math>\frac{d\theta}{d\zeta}</math> this equation can be simplified further as follows:
:<math>\frac{d\theta}{d\zeta}\xi_d^2\left(\frac{d^2\theta}{d\zeta^2}\right)+\frac{d\theta}{d\zeta}\sin{\theta}\cos{\theta}=\frac{1}{2}\xi_d^2\frac{d}{d\zeta}\left(\left(\frac{d\theta}{d\zeta}\right)^2\right)+\frac{1}{2}\frac{d}{d\zeta}\left ( \sin^2{\theta}\right)=0</math>
:<math>\int\frac{1}{2}\xi_d^2\frac{d}{d\zeta}\left(\left(\frac{d\theta}{d\zeta}\right)^2\right)+\frac{1}{2}\frac{d}{d\zeta}\left ( \sin^2{\theta}\right)\,d\zeta \,=0</math>
:<math>\frac{d\theta}{d\zeta}=\frac{1}{\xi_d}\sqrt{\sin^2{\theta_m}-\sin^2{\theta}}</math>
The value <math>\theta_m</math> is the value of <math>\theta</math> when <math>\zeta=1/2</math>. Substituting <math>k=\sin{\theta_m}</math> and <math>t=\frac{\sin{\theta}}{\sin{\theta_m}}</math> into the equation above and integrating with respect to <math>t</math> from 0 to 1 gives:
:<math>\int_0^1\frac{1}{\sqrt{(1-t^2)(1-k^2t^2)}}\,dt \,\equiv K(k)=\frac{1}{2\xi_d}</math>
The value K(k) is the [[complete elliptic integral of the first kind]]. By noting that <math>K(0)=\frac{\pi}{2}</math> one finally obtains the threshold electric field <math>E_t</math>.
:<math>E_t=\frac{\pi}{d}\sqrt{\frac{K_2}{\epsilon_0\Delta\chi_e}}</math>
As a result, by measuring the threshold electric field one can effectively measure the twist [[Frank constant]] so long as the anisotropy in the electric susceptibility and plate separation is known.
