Field-induced transformations in the biaxial order of non-tilted phases in a bent-core smectic liquid crystal
PANARIN, YURI PETROVICH; NAGARAJ, MAMATHA; VIJ, JAGDISH KUMAR (Institute of Physics, 2010)The structural and electro-optic investigations of an achiral bent-core molecule in SmAPA phase, in which the polar directors in the neighboring layers are arranged anti-ferroelectrically, show that it undergoes transformation ... -
Macroscopic biaxiality and electric-field-induced rotation of the minor director in the nematic phase of a bent-core liquid crystal
NAGARAJ, MAMATHA; VIJ, JAGDISH (2010)Biaxiality in the nematic phase has been investigated for the bent-core liquid-crystal para-heptylbenzoate diester, using polarised IR spectroscopy. Anisotropic fluctuations of the nematic director are discussed in terms ... -
Microsecond linear optical response in the unusual nematic phase of achiral bimesogens
VIJ, JAGDISH; BALACHANDARAN, RESHMA; NAGARAJ, MAMATHA; PANOV, VITALI (2011)Some hydrocarbon linked mesogenic dimers are known to exhibit an additional nematic phase (N(x)) below a conventional uniaxial nematic (N(u)) phase. Although composed of non-chiral molecules, the N(x) phase is found to ... -
Sequence of Four Orthogonal Smectic Phases in an Achiral Bent-Core Liquid Crystal: Evidence for the SmAP(alpha) Phase
VIJ, JAGDISH; NAGARAJ, MAMATHA (2011)The mesomorphic properties of an achiral bent-core liquid crystal derived from 4-cyanoresorcinol are studied by polarizing optical microscopy, x-ray diffraction, and second harmonic electro-optic response. It shows a novel ...
