Multiple ferroelectric nematic phases of a highly polar liquid crystal compound

Rony Saha, Pawan Nepal, Chenrun Feng +5

Ferroelectric nematic liquid crystals represent not only interesting fundamental science, but they also hold promise for storage capacitors with high power density or new informati…

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…

Enhancement in Electro-Optic Properties of Dynamic Scattering Systems through Addition of Dichroic Dyes

Mansoureh Shasti, James. T. Gleeson, Paul Luchette +3

Electro-optic properties of dynamic scattering in homeotropically aligned pure and dichroic dye-doped nematic liquid crystal samples are examined. The optical properties of the two…

Light scattering study of the "pseudo-layer" compression elastic constant in a twist-bend nematic liquid crystal

Z. Parsouzi, Shokir A. Pardaev, C. Welch +9

The nematic twist-bend (TB) phase, exhibited by certain achiral thermotropic liquid crystalline (LC) dimers, features a nanometer-scale, heliconical rotation of the average molecul…

Anomalous increase in nematic-isotropic transition temperature in dimer molecules induced by magnetic field

S. M. Salili, M. G. Tamba, S. N. Sprunt +4

We have determined the nematic-isotropic transition temperature as a function of applied magnetic field in three different thermotropic liquid crystalline dimers. These molecules a…
