Gradient theory of domain walls in thin, nematic liquid crystals films
(World Scientific Publishing, 2020)
In this paper, we describe domain walls appearing in a thin, nematic liquid crystal sample subject to an external field with intensity close to the Freedericksz transition threshold. Using the gradient theory of the phase ...
Temperature anomalies of hypersound velocity and specific heat ratio in liquid Quinoline
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE, 2005-08-15)
Results of an extensive study of dynamic polarized (VV) and depolarized (VH) Rayleigh-Brillouin light scattering in Quinoline as a function of temperature are presented. The VV spectrum is analyzed by taking into account ...
Topological transitions in an oscillatory driven liquid crystal cell
(Nature, 2020)
Matter under different equilibrium conditions of pressure and temperature exhibits different states such as solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. Exotic states of matter, such as Bose-Einstein condensates, superfluidity, chiral ...
Structure of liquid GeO2 from a computer simulation model
(2004)
The structural properties of liquid GeO2 were investigated using molecular dynamics simulation. A comparison of the obtained pair correlation functions, coordination number, angular distribution, and both the neutron and ...
Liquid-solid-like transition in quasi-one-dimensional driven granular media
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2008-03)
The theory of non-ideal gases at thermodynamic equilibrium, for instance the van der Waals gas model, has played a central role in our understanding of coexisting phases, as well as the transitions between them. In contrast, ...
Studies of first- and second-order phase transitions in LC methacrylic monomers based on the ω-hexyloxysalicylaldimine group
(2007)
The synthesis and phase characterization of two liquid crystalline methacrylic monomers based on the ω-hexyloxysalicylaldimine group with octyl and decyloxy chain substitutions is presented. The liquid crystalline materials ...
Smectogenic liquid crystals and nanoparticles: an approach for potential application in photovoltaics
(Royal Soc Chemistry, 2015)
We synthesized monomeric liquid crystals, M6R8 and I6R8, and nanoparticles of TiO2, to form
a nanocomposite, which was characterized by polarized optical microscopy (POM), DSC and
structurally by both wide angle X-ray ...
Phase characterization of LC (meth)acrylic monomers based on omega-hexyloxy- and omega-undecyloxy-salicylaldimine groups with different alkoxy tail substitutions
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2004-08)
The synthesis and phase characterization of three homologous series of liquid crystalline acrylic and methacrylic monomers, consisting of 21 new compounds are presented. They are based on omega-hexyloxy- and omega-undecy ...
