Fluorocarbon and hydrocarbon end groups: Effects on mesomorphism and physical properties of smectic liquid crystals
Cowling, Stephen J.,Hall, Alan W.,Goodby, John W.
, p. 9031 - 9042 (2012/01/15)
In this article we examine the effects of cyclohexane and perfluorocyclohexane being used as bulky end groups on the mesomorphism of classical smectic liquid crystal mesogens. The mesogen that is used in this work is typical of the MHPOBC family of materi
A chiral electrooptic response in a racemic liquid crystal
Cowling, Stephen J.,Hall, Alan W.,Goodby, John W.
, p. 1546 - 1548 (2007/10/03)
Over recent years, little attention has been paid to the electrooptic properties of racemic modifications of smectic liquid crystals, however, in this communication we report on a chiral response of a racemic modification to an applied electrical field wh
