Blue Phase, Smectic Fluids, and Unprecedented Sequences in Liquid Crystal Dimers
Source abstract
Abstract
Several optically pure liquid crystal dimers with strong molecular chirality, synthesized by covalently linking an achiral bent-core unit with a bulky pro-mesogenic rodlike chiral entity through a flexible spacer, display amorphous blue phase, smectic phases, and new sequences.
