Electrically Tunable Heliconical Smectic Superstructure in Polar Fluids
Hiroya Nishikawa, Dennis Kwaria, Atsuko Nihonyanagi +3
The ferroelectric nematic (NF) phase and related polar liquid-crystalline phases form a new class of strongly polarized yet fluid soft matter. Well-recognized heliconical ferroelec…

Spontaneous Twist of Ferroelectric Smectic Blocks in Polar Fluids
Hiroya Nishikawa, Yasushi Okumura, Dennis Kwaria +2
In soft matter, the polar orientational order of molecules can facilitate the coexistence of structural chirality and ferroelectricity. The ferroelectric nematic (NF) state, exhibi…
