Distinct differences in the nanoscale behaviors of the twist-bend liquid crystal phase of a flexible linear trimer and homologous dimer
Michael R. Tuchband, Daniel A. Paterson, Mirosław Salamończyk +12
We synthesized the liquid crystal dimer and trimer members of a series of flexible linear oligomers and characterized their microscopic and nanoscopic properties using resonant sof…
Heliconical smectic phases formed by achiral molecules
Jordan P. Abberley, Ross Killah, Rebecca Walker +6
A series of asymmetric dimers with an odd number of atoms in the spacer were found to form different types of twisted structures despite being achiral. The formation of a variety o…
Structure of nanoscale-pitch helical phases: blue phase and twist-bend nematic phase resolved by resonant soft X-ray scattering
Mirosław Salamończyk, Nataša Vaupotič, Damian Pociecha +3
Periodic structures of phases with orientational order of molecules, but homogenous electron density distribution: a short pitch cholesteric, blue phase and twist-bend nematic phas…
