Rheology of twist-grain-boundary-A liquid crystals.
We report studies on the rheological properties of a liquid crystalline analog of Abrikosov phase in type-II superconductors known as twist-grain-boundary-A (TGB(A)) phase. The TGB(A) phase shows a large apparent yield stress compared to the cholesteric (N*) phase. The storage modulus (G') of the TGB(A) phase is significantly larger than the loss modulus (G''). The dynamic relaxation measuremen...
متن کاملRheology of nematic liquid crystals with highly polar molecules.
We report experimental studies on the rheology of a few nematic liquid crystals with highly polar molecules (CCH-7, PCH-7, CB-7). The selected molecules have the same alkyl chain (-C(7)H(15)) and cyano (-CN) end group. In the core part of the molecule, CCH-7 has two cyclohexane rings, PCH-7 has one cyclohexane and one aromatic ring, and CB-7 has two aromatic rings. Two viscosities were measured...
متن کاملRheology of defect networks in cholesteric liquid crystals.
The rheological properties of cholesteric liquid crystals containing networks of defects are investigated. A network of linear defects of the "oily-streak" type is stabilized when colloidal particles are dispersed into the cholesteric liquid crystals. This network converts the rheological response of a presheared cholesteric liquid crystal from fluidlike to solidlike and leads to the formation ...
متن کاملPhotoalignment of liquid crystals by liquid crystals
We observed light-induced alignment of the nematic liquid crystal, 4, 4(')-n-pentylcyanobiphenyl (5CB), on a fused quartz. Irradiation of the adsorbed layer with polarized ultraviolet light produced homogeneous alignment in a 5CB-filled liquid crystal cell with the easy orientation axis perpendicular to the polarization direction. The measured anchoring energy increases with illumination up to ...
متن کاملRheology of liquid crystalline polymers
Concepts which may be used in interpreting the complex rheology of liquid crystalline polymers are reviewed. Some of them are taken from the nematodynamics of low molecular weight liquid crystals as described by the Leslie—Ericksen theory, others are intrinsic to the viscoelasticity of ordinary polymers. Tentatively, these concepts are used to construct an explanation of the band texture which ...
