Coarsening in Bent-core Liquid Crystals: Intermediate Splay Bend State en route to the Twist Bend Phase
Nishant Birdi, Nigel B. Wilding, Sanjay Puri +1
We use molecular dynamics simulations to study coarsening dynamics in achiral banana-shaped bent-core liquid crystals following a quench from the high concentration polar smectic (…

Equilibrium phases and domain growth kinetics of calamitic liquid crystals
Nishant Birdi, Tom L. Underwood, Nigel B. Wilding +2
The anisotropic shape of calamitic LC particles results in distinct energy values when nematogens are placed side-by-side or end-to-end. The energy anisotropy governed by parameter…

Ordering Kinetics of Canted and Uniform States in Nematic Liquid Crystals
Nishant Birdi, Varsha Banerjee, Sanjay Puri
We undertake a comprehensive Monte Carlo (MC) study of the ordering kinetics in nematic liquid crystals (NLCs) in 3-dimensions by performing deep quenches from the isotropi…
