Phase behaviors of binary mixtures composed of banana-shaped and calamitic mesogens
M. Cvetinov, D. Ž. Obadović, M. Stojanović +4
In this work, five mixtures with different concentrations of banana-shaped and calamitic compounds have been prepared and subsequently studied by polarizing optical microscopy, dif…
Electric Field Induced Patterns and their Temperature Dependence in a Bent-Core Liquid Crystal
Ying Xiang, Yi-Kun Liu, Ágnes Buka +4
Two kinds of electroconvection (EC) patterns in an ether-bridged bent-core nematic liquid crystal material (BCN), which appear in different frequency ranges, are examined and compa…
Morphological changes of amphiphilic molecular assemblies induced by chemical reaction
Koh M. Nakagawa, Hiroshi Noguchi
Shape transformations of amphiphilic molecular assemblies induced by chemical reaction are studied using coarse-grained molecular simulations. A binding reaction between hydrophili…
Heaping, Secondary Flows and Broken Symmetry in Flows of Elongated Granular Particles
Geert Wortel, Tamás Börzsönyi, Ellák Somfai +4
In this paper we report experiments where we shear granular rods in split-bottom geometries, and find that a significant heap of height of least 40% of the filling height can form…
Influence of the Anisometry of Magnetic Particles on the Isotropic-Nematic Phase Transition
V. Gdovinová, N. Tomašovičová, N. Éber +4
The influence of the shape anisotropy of magnetic particles on the isotropic-nematic phase transition was studied in ferronematics based on the nematic liquid crystal 4-(trans-4-n-…
High concentration ferronematics in low magnetic fields
T. Tóth-Katona, P. Salamon, N. Éber +3
We investigated experimentally the magneto-optical and dielectric properties of magnetic-nanoparticle-doped nematic liquid crystals (ferronematics). Our studies focus on the effect…
