Investigation into the temperature dependence of isotropic- nematic phase transition of Gay- Berne liquid crystals
Density functional approach was used to study the isotropic- nematic (I-N) transition and calculate the values of freezing parameters of the Gay- Berne liquid crystal model. New direct and pair correlation functions of a molecular fluid with Gay- Berne pair potential were used. These new functions were used in density functional theory as input to calculate the isotropic- nematic transition den...

متن کاملThe global phase diagram of the Gay–Berne model
The phase diagram of the Gay–Berne model with anisotropy parameters k53, k855 has been evaluated by means of computer simulations. For a number of temperatures, NPT simulations were performed for the solid phase leading to the determination of the free energy of the solid at a reference density. Using the equation of state and free energies of the isotropic and nematic phases available in the e...
متن کاملCore charge distribution and self assembly of columnar phases: the case of triphenylenes and azatriphenylenes
BACKGROUND The relation between the structure of discotic molecules and columnar properties, a crucial point for the realization of new advanced materials, is still largely unknown. A paradigmatic case is that hexa-alkyl-thio substituted triphenylenes present mesogenic behavior while the corresponding azatriphenylenes, similar in shape and chemical structure, but with a different core charge di...
متن کاملGlass Formation in the Gay - Berne nematic liquid crystal
We present the results of molecular dynamics simulations of the Gay-Berne model of liquid crystals, supercooled from the nematic phase. We find a glass transition to a metastable phase with nematic order and frozen translational and orientational degrees of freedom. For fast quench rates the local structure is nematic-like, while for slower quench rates smectic order is present as well. 61.30.-...
