  • Since Eq.(10) presented in Ref.[3] contains the term of R/R0 and R0 is zero for homeotropically-aligned LC samples, Eq.(10) can not be used in these samples for deriving the polar anchoring energy. But this does not mean that the original high-electric-field method is not useful for homeotropically-aligned samples, and some modifications of the equation are needed to apply the method to homeotropically-aligned samples
