As part of our studies on glycolipidic liquid crystals, we have investigated some molecules comprising a steroid moiety. These systems can exhibit several types of structures depending on their polarity pattern based on the number of polar and non-po

The nematic twist-bend phase (NTB) was, until recently, only observed for polar mesogenic dimers, trimers or bent-core compounds. In this article, we report a comprehensive study on novel apolar materials that also exhibit NTB phases. The NTB phase w

A large selection of photochromic dihydroazulene (DHA) molecules incorporating various substituents at position 2 of the DHA core was prepared and investigated for their ability to form liquid crystalline phases. Incorporation of an octyloxy-substitu

A number of materials derived from 4-undecyloxy-4′-cyanobiphenyl but with varying terminal groups were prepared in order to better understand how such a group influences the type, and local structure of mesophases formed. Whereas electron poor term

Ferroelectric liquid crystals are of interest in display devices because of their bistable operation and fast response times. However, they have not reached their potential for a number of reasons, low tilt angle and high birefringence being two of t

In this work, we present the first part of a study into the relationship between molecular structure and the occurrence of the ‘twist-bend nematic phase’ (NTB). Given the large amount of chemical s...

In this article, we report on the liquid-crystalline properties of two series of halogen-terminated cyanobiphenyl-based materials. Unlike other rod-shaped, halogen-terminated materials reported, these materials do not exhibit the smectic A phase and

A detailed microscopy study of the mesophases of 1,11-di-(1′′-cyanobiphenyl-4-yl)undecane (CB11CB) was undertaken, with an emphasis on attempting to relate the recent helical “twist-bend” model of the NTB phase to the observed optical texture
