Antiferroelectric Smectic Ordering as a Prelude to the Ferroelectric Nematic:Introducing the Smectic Phase
Xi Chen, Vikina Martinez, Eva Korblova +9
We have structurally characterized the liquid crystal phase that appears as an intermediate state when a dielectric nematic, having polar disorder of its molecular dipoles, transit…
Ideal Mixing of Paraelectric and Ferroelectric Nematic Phases in Liquid Crystals of Distinct Molecular Species
Xi Chen, Zhecong Zhu, Mitchell J. Magrini +6
The organic mesogens RM734 and DIO are members of separate molecular families featuring distinct molecular structures. These families, at the present time, are the only ones known…
Detection of Islands and Droplets on Smectic Films Using Machine Learning
Eric Hedlund, Keith Hedlund, Adam Green +4
Machine learning techniques have been developed to identify inclusions on the surface of freely suspended smectic liquid crystal films imaged by reflected light microscopy. The exp…
