In this paper, we present a second order, linear, fully decoupled, and unconditionally energy stable scheme for solving the Erickson-Leslie model. This approach integrates the pressure correction method with a scalar auxiliary variable technique. We rigorously demonstrate the unconditional energy stability of the proposed scheme. Furthermore, we present several numerical experiments to validate its convergence order, stability, and computational efficiency.
