The Missing Relationship between the Miscibility of Chiral Dopants and the Microscopic Dynamics of Solvent Liquid Crystals: A Molecular Dynamics Study
Nematic liquid crystals (LCs) are known to undergo a phase transition to chiral nematic LCs possessing helices upon doping with enantiomeric molecules known as chiral dopants. The relationship between the helical pitch (<inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML&qu...
