Room-temperature ferroelectric nematic liquid crystal showing a large and divergent density
Charles Parton-Barr, Helen Gleeson, Richard Mandle
The ferroelectric nematic phase (NF) is a recently discovered phase of matter in which the orientational order of the conventional nematic liquid crystal state is augmented with po…
Liquid-Crystal-Based Controllable Attenuators Operating in the 1-4 Terahertz Band
Aniela Dunn, Zhaopeng Zhang, Michael D. Horbury +12
Liquid-crystal devices (LCDs) offer a potential route toward adaptive optical components for use in the < 2 THz band of the electromagnetic spectrum. We demonstrate LCDs using a co…
Coincident Molecular Auxeticity and Negative Order Parameter in a Liquid Crystal Elastomer
Devesh Mistry, Simon D. Connell, Stuart L. Micklethwaite +3
"Auxetic" materials have the counter-intuitive property of expanding rather than contracting perpendicular to an applied stretch, formally they have negative Poisson's Ratios (PRs)…
Graphene-Based Liquid Crystal Device
P. Blake, P. D. Brimicombe, R. R. Nair +9
Graphene is only one atom thick, optically transparent, chemically inert and an excellent conductor. These properties seem to make this material an excellent candidate for applicat…
Nanofabricated media with negative permeability at visible frequencies
A. N. Grigorenko, H. F. Gleeson, Y. Zhang +3
We report a nanofabricated medium made of electromagnetically coupled pairs of gold dots with geometry carefully designed at a 10-nm level. The medium exhibits strong magnetic resp…
