Focal Conic Stacking in Smectic A Liquid Crystals: Smectic Flower and Apollonius Tiling

We investigate two different textures of smectic A liquid crystals. These textures are particularly symmetric when they are observed at crossed polars optical microscopy. For both textures, a model has been made in order to examine the link between the defective macroscopic texture and the microscop...
