Periodic pattern formation in an achiral bent core nematic
We investigated a periodic flexoelectric domain pattern, which appeared as regular parallel stripes in an achiral bent core nematic liquid crystal when dc electric field was applied. We found that such a pattern was first formed at the substrate surface and took place in sandwich cells with a gap la...
