A progress report on the synthesis and characterisation of a series of fluorinated chiral bi-mesogen low molar mass organosiloxane materials is presented. The mesogenic moiety is identical to that in the TSiKN65F mono-mesogen material reported by Naciri et al., which displays a de Vries-type SmA* phase. The parameter varied across the series is the length of the alkyl chain linking the mesogen moiety to the siloxane. The material with 10 carbon atoms in the chains displays a stable smectic phase with ferroelectric response at room temperature, whereas the materials with 6, 7 and 8 carbon atoms tend to crystallize.

experimental part, p. 39 - 44 (2009/10/01)
Six thermotropic cholesteric multi-arm liquid crystals (MALCs) were synthesized with glucose and sorbitol as chiral cores. b0, b1 and b2 were introduced into hydroxy groups of the chiral cores as the mesogenic units in the arm scaffold. The roles played b
