Double-Helical Tiled Chain Structure of the Twist-Bend Liquid Crystal phase in CB7CB
Michael R. Tuchband, Min Shuai, Keri A. Graber +16
The twist-bend nematic liquid crystal phase is a three-dimensional fluid in which achiral bent molecules spontaneously form an orientationally ordered macroscopically chiral helico…
The twist-bend nematic phase of bent mesogenic dimer CB7CB and its mixtures
Michael R. Tuchband, Min Shuai, Keri A. Graber +12
Binary mixtures of the twist-bend nematic-forming liquid crystal CB7CB with the prototypical rod-like liquid crystal 5CB exhibit a twist-bend nematic phase with properties similar…
Twist-bend heliconical chiral nematic liquid crystal phase of an achiral rigid bent-core mesogen
Dong Chen, Michi Nakata, Renfan Shao +8
The chiral, heliconical (twist-bend) nematic ground state is reported in an achiral, rigid, bent-core mesogen (UD68). Similar to the nematic twist-bend (NTB) phase observed in bent…
A Twist-Bend Chiral Helix of 8nm Pitch in a Nematic Liquid Crystal of Achiral Molecular Dimers
Dong Chen, Jan H. Porada, Justin B. Hooper +8
Freeze Fracture Transmission Electron Microscopy (FFTEM) study of the nanoscale structure of the so-called "twist-bend" nematic (NX) phase of the cyanobiphenyl (CB) dimer molecule…
