Ferroelectric nematic -- isotropic critical end point

Jadwiga Szydlowska, Pawel Majewski, Mojca Čepič +8

A critical end point above which an isotropic phase continuously evolves into a polar (ferroelectric) nematic phase with an increasing electric field is found in a ferroelectric ne…

Organic nanotubes created from mesogenic derivatives

Vladimira Novotna, Vera Hamplova, Lubor Lejcek +7

A facile route to prepare the nanotubes from rod-like mesogens dissolved in typical organic solvents is reported. For selected types of chiral rod-like molecules, both enantiomers…

Polarization gratings spontaneously formed by the helical Twist-Bend Nematic phase

N. Vaupotič, M. Ali, P. W. Majewski +2

Spontaneous formation of polarization gratings by liquid crystals made of bent dimeric molecules is reported. The grating is formed within the temperature range of the twist bend m…

The Implications of Grain Size Variation in Magnetic Field Alignment of Block Copolymer Blends

Yekaterina Rokhlenko, Paweł W. Majewski, Steven R. Larson +3

Recent experiments have highlighted the intrinsic magnetic anisotropy in coil-coil diblock copolymers, specifically in poly(styrene-b-4-vinylpyridine) (PS-b-P4VP), that enables mag…

Magnetic alignment of block copolymer microdomains by intrinsic chain anisotropy

Yekaterina Rokhlenko, Kai Zhang, Manesh Gopinadhan +6

We examine the role of intrinsic chain susceptibility anisotropy in magnetic field directed self-assembly of a block copolymer using \textit{in situ} X-ray scattering. Alignment of…

Order-disorder transition and alignment dynamics of a block copolymer under high magnetic fields by in situ x-ray scattering

Manesh Gopinadhan, Pawel W. Majewski, Youngwoo Choo +1

We present results of temperature resolved scattering studies of a liquid crystalline block copolymer undergoing an order-disorder transition (ODT) in the presence of magnetic fiel…
