Room temperature chiral smectic C liquid crystal bearing para-phenylchclohexyl mesogenic core
Novel calamitic chiral liquid crystal (LC) was synthesized by introducing chiral butanol moiety into the para-phenylcyclohexyl mesogenic core. We confirmed the liquid crystallinity of chiral LC using DSC, POM and XRD measurements. The chiral LC shows a stable enantiomeric LC phase both cooling and h...
