Abstract | : | We have found an unusual and unexpected link between micro-(nematic director) and macro-(velocity) fields in nematodynamics, which exhibits itself in extended defects of a new type. In particular, we have shown that black lines (BLs) observed in electroconvection of a homeotropically aligned nematic layer are simultaneously Bloch’s domain walls for the director field and lines of zero velocity intersecting a roll pattern for the convection. A detailed experimental study revealing the fine structure of BLs and their point defects is presented. |
