The synthesis and characterisation of the nonsymmetric liquid crystal dimer, 1-(4-cyanobiphenyl-4'-yloxy)-6-(4-cyanobiphenyl-4'-yl)hexane (CB6OCB) is reported. An enantiotropic nematic (N)-twist-bend nematic (NTB) phase transition is observed at 109

Different approaches to the design of liquid crystals by using H-bonds were analyzed. A selection of stilbazoles and pyridine compounds, with one or two chelating positions, were used as H-acceptors in mixtures with carboxylic acids. The noncovalent

Publikováno v: ResearcherID

Bent-core liquid crystals derived from boron coordination compounds have been obtained using a novel approach that incorporates a roof-shaped pyrazabole ring at the core, and lateral wings of different lengths in their aromatic and aliphatic parts. T

The nature of the nematic-nematic phase transition in the liquid crystal dimer 1″,9″-bis(4-cyanobiphenyl-4'-yl) nonane (CB9CB) has been investigated using techniques of calorimetry, dynamic dielectric response measurements, and (2)H NMR spectrosc
