Polarization Plasticity of Ferroelectric Nematics: a case of Electrostatic Frustration in Simple Planar Electrode Cells
Stefano Marni, Federico Caimi, Luca Casiraghi +5
Because of their spontaneous bulk polarization, ferroelectric nematic liquid crystals can be easily brought by surface coupling or confinement in a state in which the accumulation…
Optical Control Of Mass Ejection From Ferroelectric Liquid Droplets: A Possible Tool For The Actuation Of Complex Fluids
Stefano Marni, Raouf Barboza, Annamaria Zaltron +1
We report on the optical control of the recently observed electromechanical instability of ferroelectric liquid droplets exposed to the photovoltaic field of a lithium niobate ferr…
Walk ferroelectric liquid droplets with light
Stefano Marni, Giovanni Nava, Raouf Barboza +2
We show that the motion of ferroelectric liquid sessile droplets deposited on a ferroelectric lithium niobate substrate can be controlled by a light beam of moderate intensity irra…
Explosive electrostatic instability of ferroelectric liquid droplets on ferroelectric solid surfaces
Raouf Barboza, Stefano Marni, Fabrizio Ciciulla +7
We investigated the electrostatic behavior of ferroelectric liquid droplets exposed to the pyroelectric field of a lithium niobate ferroelectric crystal substrate. The ferroelectri…
