Abstract
⺠Nematics deposited on substrates with hybrid anchoring may show film coexistence. ⺠Thicker films may be striped due to the anisotropy of nematic elasticity. ⺠Available theoretical models account partly on the thicker films properties. ⺠Coexistence of molecular and mesoscopic thinner films occurs close to NI transition. ⺠The structure of mesoscopic thinner films is still largely unknown.
