Polar and apolar light-induced alignment of ferroelectric nematic at photosensitive polymer substrate
Ruslan Kravchuk, Oleksandr Kurochkin, Vassili G. Nazarenko +4
Surface alignment of a recently discovered ferroelectric nematic liquid crystal (NF) is usually achieved by buffed polymer films, which produce a unidirectional polar alignment of…
Periodic splay Fréedericksz transitions in a ferroelectric nematic
Bijaya Basnet, Sathyanarayana Paladugu, Oleksandr Kurochkin +5
Electric field-induced splay of molecular orientation, called the Fréedericksz transition, is a fundamental electro-optic phenomenon in nonpolar nematic liquid crystals. In a ferro…
Conic sections in ferroelectric nematics: experiments and mathematical modeling
Priyanka Kumari, Olexandr Kurochkin, Vassili G. Nazarenko +3
Domain structure of a fluid ferroelectric nematic is dramatically different from the domain structure of solid ferroelectrics since it is not restricted by rectilinear crystallogra…
Polar self-organization of ferroelectric nematic liquid crystal molecules on atomically flat Au(111) surface
Alexandr A. Marchenko, Oleksiy L. Kapitanchuk, Yaroslava Yu. Lopatina +5
Understanding nanoscale mechanisms responsible for the recently discovered ferroelectric nematics can be helped by direct visualization of self-assembly of strongly polar molecules…
