Nematic liquid crystals with a trifluoromethyl group
Kelly, Stephen M.,Skelton, Graham,Jones, Cliff,Minter, Vicki,Tuffin, Rachel
, p. 873 - 880 (2007/10/03)
We have synthesised a new class of compounds incorporating a trifluoromethyl group in the terminal alkoxy or alkenyloxy chain. Compounds containing several aromatic rings were synthesised with a view to producing compounds of high birefringence. This also
The Synthesis and Physical Properties of Some 1-n-Alkyl-4-(4-substituted phenyl)bicyclo(2.2.2)octanes
Carr, N.,Gray, G. W.,Kelly, S. M.
, p. 301 - 314 (2007/10/02)
The preparation and mesomorphic properties of a number of 1-n-alkyl-4-(4-n-alkyl- and 4-n-alkoxy-phenyl)bicyclo(2.2.2)octanes and 1-n-alkyl-4-(4'-n-alkylbiphenyl-4-yl)bicyclo(2.2.2)octanes are described.The clearing temperatures reported emphasise the high thermal stability conferred upon liquid crystal phases by the presence of the bicyclo-octane ring in a mesogen.Some physical data relating to the use of such materials in mixtures for electro-optical displays have been obtained.
LIQUID CRYSTALS OF THE 4-ALKYL-1-(4-ALKANOYLOXYPHENYL)-BICYCLOOCTANE GROUP
Adomenas, P. V.,Girdzhyunaite, D. K.,Mazhunaitis, G. V.
, p. 2069 - 2070 (2007/10/02)
A series of compounds of the 4-alkyl-1-(4-alkanoyloxyphenyl)bicyclooctane group which form liquid-crystalline states of the nematic and smectic types were synthesized.Certain representatives exhibit phase transitions to the crystalline state.In com
