Investigating room temperature ferroelectric nematogens and their structure-property relationships

Abstract The recent discovery of proper ferroelectricity in low molar mass liquid crystals has made the quest for identifying materials which exhibit the phase transition at room temperatures of upmost importance. Here, the synthesis and characterization of twelve different series of ferroelectric n...
