Observation of a uniaxial ferroelectric smectic A phase
Xi Chen, Vikina Martinez, Pierre Nacke +12
We report the smectic , a new liquid crystal phase of the ferroelectric nematic realm. The smectic is a phase of small polar, rod-shaped molecules which form two-dimensi…
Antiferroelectric Smectic Ordering as a Prelude to the Ferroelectric Nematic:Introducing the Smectic Phase
Xi Chen, Vikina Martinez, Eva Korblova +9
We have structurally characterized the liquid crystal phase that appears as an intermediate state when a dielectric nematic, having polar disorder of its molecular dipoles, transit…
Anomalous Self-assembly of Architecturally Semiflexible Block Copolymers
Shifeng Nian, Zhouhao Fan, Guillaume Freychet +3
Block copolymer self-assembly is a fundamental process in which incompatible blocks spontaneously form organized microstructures with broad practical applications. Classical unders…
