Deep learning directed synthesis of fluid ferroelectric materials
Charles Parton-Barr, Stuart R. Berrow, Calum J. Gibb +6
Fluid ferroelectrics, a recently discovered class of liquid crystals that exhibit switchable, long-range polar order, offer opportunities in ultrafast electro-optic technologies, r…
Ferroelectric Fluids for Nonlinear Photonics: Evaluation of Temperature Dependence of Second-Order Susceptibilities
Matija Lovšin, Luka Cmok, Calum J. Gibb +5
Ferroelectric nematic fluids are promising materials for tunable nonlinear photonics, with applications ranging from second harmonic generation to sources of entangled photons. How…
Polarity from the Bottom Up: A Computational Framework for Predicting Spontaneous Polar Order
Jordan Hobbs, Calum J. Gibb, Richard J. Mandle
So-called polar liquid crystals possess spontaneous long-range mutual orientation of their electric dipole moments, conferring bulk polarity to fluid phases of matter. The combinat…
Static and hydrodynamic periodic structures induced by AC electric fields in the antiferroelectric SmZA phase
K. S. Krishnamurthy, S. Krishna Prasad, D. S. Shankar Rao +4
We report the effect of AC electric fields in the range of 0.1-300 kHz on planar antiferroelectric SmZA layers of DIO. Significant results are (a) primary bifurcation into a quasis…
Ferri- and Ferro-Electric Switching in Spontaneously Chiral Polar Liquid Crystals
Jordan Hobbs, Calum J. Gibb, Richard J. Mandle
The recent discovery of spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking has demonstrated the possibility of discovering the exotic textures of ferromagnetic systems in liquid crystalline flui…
Reactive Fluid Ferroelectrics: A Gateway to the Next Generation of Ferroelectric Liquid Crystalline Polymer Networks
Stuart R Berrow, Jordan Hobbs, Calum J Gibb
Herein we report the first examples of reactive mesogenic materials (RMs) which exhibit fluid ferroelectric order based on the recently discovered ferroelectric nematic (NF) phase.…
