| dc.description.abstract | A generalized model taking into account the photoisomerization influence on the nematic ordering is presented. This generalized theory is used to investigate the effect of the nonextensivity on the concentration dependence of the long-range order parameter. The q-dependent variation of the concentration of cis-trans isomers and of the order parameter with the time of exposure to the illumination is investigated within nonextensivity. It is also shown that for sufficiently long exposition of the mesophase to the illumination the nematic phase cannot disappear for some value of the entropic index, coming from Tsallis statistics. Moreover it is shown that long range interactions or the fractal structure in the liquid crystalline system might affect the characteristics of the phase transition in the physical system. We think therefore that this conclusion might shed light on the interaction potential energy terms in the similar system in future possible experiments, even to be performed on new objects with different symmetries.
