Après avoir rappelé quelques résultats expérimentaux concernant la structure aux interfaces et en film mince de cristaux liquides, l'article est essentiellement consacré à la détermination expérimentale et à l'analyse des isothermes de pression de disjonction de films de mouillage. Le traitement des surfaces solides imposant des ancrages planaires ou homéotropes a permis d'établir les isothermes pour des films distordus, ou non distordus homéotropes, de quelques cristaux liquides. Des composantes structurales élastiques ou non élastiques à la pression de disjonction sont mises en évidence. La discussion des isothermes fait intervenir la notion d'énergie d'ancrage à la surface libre.First we recall some experimental results about Liquid Crys...
