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…

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…
