Nematic and smectic phases with proper ferroelectric order
Grant J. Strachan, Ewa Górecka, Jadwiga Szydłowska +2
A material showing a sequence of three ferroelectric liquid crystalline phases below the paraelectric nematic phase has been synthesized and studied. The polar order of molecules a…
Intrinsically chiral ferronematic liquid crystals
D. Pociecha, R. Walker, E. Cruickshank +8
Strongly dipolar mesogenic compounds with a chiral center located in a lateral alkyl chain were synthesized, and shown to form the ferroelectric nematic phase. The presence of mole…
Multiple polar and non-polar nematic phases
S. Brown, E. Cruickshank, J. M. D. Storey +5
Liquid crystal materials exhibiting up to three nematic phases are reported. Dielectric response measurements show that while the lower temperature nematic phase has ferroelectric…
