Abstract :
The results of research on the process of reorientation of the plane-oriented nematic in LC-microlens are presented. The influence of initial pretilt of molecules on this process is established. The mechanisms of formation and vanishing of disclination are considered. The construction of a microlens, having a nondisclination operational mode, is described
