Nature of nematic to twist bend nematic phase transition
Damian Pociecha, Catriona Crawford, Daniel A. Paterson +4
The critical behavior at the transition from uniform nematic to twist-bend modulated nematic phase is revealed and shown to be well explained by the mean field approximation. The s…
Distinct differences in the nanoscale behaviors of the twist-bend liquid crystal phase of a flexible linear trimer and homologous dimer
Michael R. Tuchband, Daniel A. Paterson, Mirosław Salamończyk +12
We synthesized the liquid crystal dimer and trimer members of a series of flexible linear oligomers and characterized their microscopic and nanoscopic properties using resonant sof…
Electrically tunable selective reflection of light from ultraviolet to visible and infrared by heliconical cholesterics
Jie Xiang, Yannian Li, Quan Li +4
Cholesteric liquid crystals with helicoidal molecular architecture are known for their ability to selectively reflect light with the wavelength that is determined by the periodicit…
