Polar nature of the ferro-electric nematic studied by dielectric spectroscopy

Neelam Yadav, Yuri P. Panarin, Jagdish K. Vij +2

The nematic-nematic transitions in a nematic compound DIO are studied in homogeneously planar and homeotropic aligned cells using dielectric spectroscopy in the frequency range 0.1…

Detection of chiral domains and linear electro-optical response in planar-aligned cells of an achiral rod-like ferro-electric nematic liquid crystal

Neelam Yadav, Yuri P. Panarin, Jagdish K. Vij +2

Chiral domains of opposite chirality are observed surprisingly in a nematic phase of an achiral rod-like liquid crystalline mesogen that shows ferroelectric nematic and antiferroel…

The role of intermolecular interactions in stabilizing the structure of the nematic twist-bend phase

Katarzyna Merkel, Barbara Loska, Chris Welch +2

The relationship between the molecular structure and the formation of the NTB phase is still at an early stage of development. This is mainly related to molecular geometry, while t…

The interplay between spatial and heliconical bond order in twist-bend nematic materials

Rony Saha, Chenrun Feng, Chris Welch +6

The nanostructure of two novel sulfur containing dimer materials has been investigated experimentally by hard and by resonant tender X-ray scattering techniques. On cooling the dim…

Molecular biaxiality determines the helical structure -- Infrared measurements of the molecular order in the NTB phase of difluoro terphenyl dimers

Katarzyna Merkel, Barbara Loska, Chris Welch +2

IR polarized spectroscopy was employed, to obtain the three components of IR absorbance for a series DTC5Cn (n=5,7,9,11) of bent-shaped dimers containing double fluorinated terphen…

Temperature dependence of bend elastic constant in oblique helicoidal cholesterics

Olena S. Iadlovska, Greta Babakhanova, Georg H. Mehl +7

Elastic moduli of liquid crystals, known as Frank constants, are of quintessential importance for understanding fundamental properties of these materials and for the design of thei…
