Fluid ferroelectric filaments

Marcell Tibor Máthé, Kelum Perera, Ágnes Buka +2

Freestanding slender fluid filaments of room temperature ferroelectric nematic liquid crystals are described. They are stabilized either by internal electric fields of bound charge…

Electric field-induced interfacial instability in a ferroelectric nematic liquid crystal

Marcell Tibor Máthé, Bendegúz Farkas, László Péter +3

Studies of sessile droplets and fluid bridges of a ferroelectric nematic liquid crystal in externally applied electric fields are presented. It is found that above a threshold, the…

Ferroelectric nematic liquid crystal thermo-motor

Marcell Tibor Máthé, Ágnes Buka, Antal Jákli +1

A thermal gradient-induced circular motion of particles placed on ferroelectric nematic liquid crystal sessile drops is demonstrated and explained. Unlike hurricanes and tornadoes…

Suppression of spatially periodic patterns by dc voltage

Nándor Éber, Péter Salamon, Balázs András Fekete +3

The effect of superposed dc and ac applied voltages on two types of spatially periodic instabilities in nematic liquid crystals, flexoelectric domains (FD) and electroconvection (E…

Electric Field Induced Patterns and their Temperature Dependence in a Bent-Core Liquid Crystal

Ying Xiang, Yi-Kun Liu, Ágnes Buka +4

Two kinds of electroconvection (EC) patterns in an ether-bridged bent-core nematic liquid crystal material (BCN), which appear in different frequency ranges, are examined and compa…

Inhibited pattern formation by asymmetrical high voltage excitation in nematic fluids

Peter Salamon, Nandor Eber, Balazs Fekete +1

In contrast to the predictions of the standard theory of electroconvection (EC), our experiments showed that the action of superposed ac and dc voltages rather inhibits pattern for…
