Structural studies of the bond-orientational order and hexatic-smectic transition in liquid crystals of various compositions
I. A. Zaluzhnyy, R. P. Kurta, E. A. Sulyanova +9
We report on X-ray studies of freely suspended hexatic films of three different liquid crystal compounds. By applying angular X-ray cross-correlation analysis (XCCA) to the measure…
Analysis of the shape of x-ray diffraction peaks originating from the hexatic phase of liquid crystal films
I. A. Zaluzhnyy, R. P. Kurta, A. P. Menushenkov +2
X-ray diffraction studies of the bond-orientational order in the hexatic-B phase of 75OBC and 3(10)OBC compounds are presented. The temperature evolution of an angular profile of a…
Direct reconstruction of the two-dimensional pair distribution function in systems with angular correlations
I. A. Zaluzhnyy, R. P. Kurta, A. P. Menushenkov +2
An x-ray scattering approach to determine the two-dimensional (2D) pair distribution function (PDF) in partially ordered 2D systems is proposed. We derive relations between the str…
Spatially resolved x-ray studies of liquid crystals with strongly developed bond-orientational order
I. A. Zaluzhnyy, R. P. Kurta, E. A. Sulyanova +7
We present an x-ray study of freely suspended hexatic films of the liquid crystal 3(10)OBC. Our results reveal spatial inhomogeneities of the bond-orientational (BO) order in the v…
