Abstract

The Onsager virial theory for the isotropic-nematic phase transition of thin rod-like nematic molecules doped with ferroelectric nanoparticles is treated comprehensively. An expression for free energy of the system as a whole is received. By applying the Lagrange multiplier method for variation of free energy expression the orientational distribution function of nematics in the presence of nanoparticles is obtained.
