Paper Abstract

Light scattering cross sections caused by director inhomogeneities in the nematic liquid crystals filled with small spherical and cylindrical particles are calculated bothi n the Rayleigh-Gans approximation and within the anomalous-diffraction approach. The influence of the director anchoring conditions at the particle surface as well as the external electric field and the liquid crystal flexoelectricity on the light scattering cross sections is studied.
