It belongs to the derivatives of p-terphenyldicarboxylic acid and has twisting power in the smectic C* mixture much higher than any chiral compound of this series known before. The ferroelectric liquid crystal mixtures on the base of achiral SmC matrix and the new chiral dopant have been elaborated and there optical and electro-optical properties were investigated.

Research paper thumbnail of Statistical modeling of equilibrium adsorption of non-ideal mixtures on zeolites

The nonuniformity of the adsorption field produces rearrangement of molecules in the cavity volume, decreasing the entropy, internal energy, and Helmholz free energy. A procedure for calculation of the thermodynamic functions from the data on the adsorption of pure components was proposed. The limiting cases of maximum ordering of the molecules in the cavity and their random distribution were considered. The approach proposed was exemplified by the substantially non-ideal system nitrogen--argon--zeolite NaX at 160 K. The proposed model describes the behavior of this mixture much better than that of the ideal adsorbed solution theory.

Research paper thumbnail of Light Scattering of Short Helix Pitch Ferroelectric Liquid Crystal

One of the modes arises because of a special kind of the FLC structure non-uniformity that originates inherently as a new phenomenon if the helix pitch is very small. Another mode relates to the helix twisting after the driving voltage switching off.
