A Ten-Year Perspective on Twist-Bend Nematic Materials
The discovery of the twist-bend nematic phase (N<sub>TB</sub>) is a milestone within the field of liquid crystals. The N<sub>TB</sub> phase has a helical structure, with a repeat length of a few nanometres, and is therefore chiral, even when formed by achiral molecules. The d...
