Flexoelectric measurements of a bent-core nematic liquid crystal.

A large flexoelectric polarization might be expected for a bent-core nematic liquid crystal, due to the combination of molecular shape and transverse dipole component. In this study a bent-core nematic compound is doped to be highly chiral, and measurements of the difference in flexoelectric coeffic...
