Helix alignment, chevrons, and edge dislocations in twist-bend ferroelectric nematics
Bijaya Basnet, Priyanka Kumari, Sathyanarayana Paladugu +6
We explore surface alignment and edge dislocations in the recently discovered twist-bend ferroelectric nematic, NTBF, in which the vector of spontaneous polarization follows an obl…
Ferroelectricity in the nematic liquid crystal under the direct current electric field
Mateusz Mrukiewicz, Paweł Perkowski, Jakub Karcz +1
We investigated the electrical properties of the liquid crystal compound, known as an RM734, exhibiting a ferroelectric nematic phase. The influence of alternating (AC) and direct…
Dual tunability of selective reflection by light and electric field for self-organizing materials
Mateusz Mrukiewicz, Martin Cigl, Paweł Perkowski +3
The oblique helicoidal structure is formed in right-angle cholesterics under the applied electric field. The electric field changes the pitch and cone angle but preserves the singl…
Spontaneous helix formation in polar smectic phase
Ewa Gorecka, Magdalena Majewska, Ladislav Fekete +4
In soft ferroelectric crystals, the depolarization field can be reduced by periodic distortion of the polarization direction. In the polar nematic and tilted smectic phases, this p…
