Viscous Properties and Dynamic Electrooptical Performance in Twisted Nematic Displays of Several Liquid Crystal Classes
The temperature dependence of the rotational viscosities of several physically markedly different binary mixtures belonging to ten different liquid crystal classes is measured. An attempt is made to correlate the results with class-specific structural properties such as hydrogenated rings, molecular polarity and structure of flexible side-chains. It is show that the measured smallscale dynamic ...
متن کاملAn Ab Initio SCF-MO Study of Conformational Properties of Cyclodeca-1,2,3-triene
Ab initio calculation at HF/6-31G* level of theory for geometry optimization and MP2/6-31G*//HF/6-31G* for a single point total energy calculation are reported for the important energyminimumconformations and transition-state geometries of of cyclodeca-1,2,3-triene (1). The mostfavorable conformation of 1 is a unsymmetrical twist-chair (1-TC) structure. Degenerateinterconversion of 1-TC with it...
متن کاملThe dependency of twist-bend nematic liquid crystals on molecular structure: a progression from dimers to trimers, oligomers and polymers.
This article gives an overview on recent developments concerning the twist-bend nematic phase. The twist-bend nematic phase has been discussed as the missing link between the uniaxial nematic mesophase (N) and the helical chiral nematic phase (N*). After an introduction discussing the key physical properties of the NTB phase and the methods used to identify the twist-bend nematic mesophase this...
متن کاملPlanar anchoring strength and pitch measurements in achiral and chiral chromonic liquid crystals using 90-degree twist cells.
Chromonic liquid crystals are formed by molecules that spontaneously assemble into anisotropic structures in water. The ordering unit is therefore a molecular assembly instead of a molecule as in thermotropic liquid crystals. Although it has been known for a long time that certain dyes, drugs, and nucleic acids form chromonic liquid crystals, only recently has enough knowledge been gained on ho...
متن کاملApplications of biomaterials to liquid crystals.
Nowadays, chemically synthesized proteins and peptides are attractive building blocks and have potential in many important applications as biomaterials. In this review, applications of biomaterials to thermotropic liquid crystals are discussed. The review covers the improvement of the performance of liquid crystal displays using liquid crystal physical gels consisting of a liquid crystal and am...
