Microsecond electro-optic switching in the nematic phase of a ferroelectric nematic liquid crystal
Kamal Thapa, Sathyanarayana Paladugu, Oleg D. Lavrentovich
Nematic liquid crystals exhibit nanosecond electro-optic response to an applied electric field which modifies the degree of orientational order without realigning the molecular ori…
Electrically tunable total reflection of light by oblique helicoidal cholesteric
Olena S. Iadlovska, Kamal Thapa, Mojtaba Rajabi +3
An oblique helicoidal state of a cholesteric liquid crystal (ChOH) is capable of continuous change of the pitch P in response to an applied electric field. Such a structure reflect…
Confinement and magnetic field effect on chiral ferroelectric nematic in Grandjean-Cano wedge cells
Kamal Thapa, Olena S. Iadlovska, Bijaya Basnet +4
We explore the structure and magnetic field response of edge dislocations in Grandjean-Cano wedge cells filled with chiral mixtures of the ferroelectric nematic mesogen DIO. Upon c…
