We describe a new technique to prepare cells of smectic C* films with a uniform bookshelf texture that can be bistably switched. This is achieved with a homeotropic surface coating with weak anchoring properties. The surface of one plate was modulate

This study focuses on the effect of polyethylene oxide (PEO) on the elastic properties of the micellar nematic formed in cesium perfluorooctanoate (CsPFO) water mixtures. We used PEO with molecular weights of 100,000 and 300,000 and prepared samples

We have synthesized and studied trisbenzocyclononenes carrying six chiral side chains. They are pyramidic shaped molecules exhibiting columnar mesophases. The optical and electrooptical effects of this chiral pyramidic compound have been studied. A h

Discotic cholesteric phases with extremely small pitches were obtained with cellobiose derivatives as chiral dopants. These binary mixtures tend to form up to three distinct blue phases. An interesting property of these mixtures is that the blue phas

It is known that ferroelectric liquid crystal cells vibrate mechanically under the effect of ac fields. The vibrations are mainly due to the backflow and electroclinic effects. For small director oscillations the effect is mainly linear and goes with

Polymer dispersions were made by photoinduced polymerization of 4,4’‐bisacryloyl‐biphenyl in liquid crystal 4‐4’‐cyano pentyl biphenyl as nematic solvent. Samples were prepared with 0.5, 1, and 1.5 wt % monomer. The polymerization was don

We observed a spontaneous transition from a vertical chevron texture to a striped texture (striped booshelf texture) in a surface-stabilized film of ferroelectric liquid crystal mixture (ZLI 4237-000, from E. Merck). The transition takes place gradua

Smectic A films with a positive dielectric anisotropy can be switched to homeotropic textures by application of sufficiently high AC electric fields. They can relax to a light scattering state when the field is removed. The transition between the hom

The formation of micellar nematics is discussed with emphasis on the transitions between nematic phases and nematic-smectic transitions. Phase diagrams for MTAB/l-decanol/D,O systems show a direct transition between uniaxial nematics. Electrical cond

Polystyrene polymers (M.W. - 2700) were dissolved in a low molecular weight nematic mixture E63 (E. Merck) in different concentrations, and studied over a broad temperature range. The rotational viscosities, γb of the mixtures were measured by using
