First-Principles Experimental Demonstration of Ferroelectricity in a Thermotropic Nematic Liquid Crystal: Spontaneous Polar Domains and Striking Electro-Optics
Xi Chen, Eva Korblova, Dengpan Dong +8
We report the experimental determination of the structure and response to applied electric field of the lower-temperature nematic phase of the previously reported calamitic compoun…
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…
Surface properties of liquid mercury: a comparison of density-dependent and density-independent force fields
A. Iakovlev, D. Bedrov, M. Müller
Motivated by an experimental interest we investigate by the means of atomistic Molecular Dynamics simulation the ability of density-independent, empiric density-dependent, and rece…
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…
