Optically Isotropic State in Bent Core Nematic Mixtures with Rod Like Molecules Induced by Direct Current Electric Field

Optically Isotropic State in Bent Core Nematic Mixtures with Rod Like Molecules Induced by Direct Current Electric Field

One of the most important characteristic of the liquid crystal displays is the contrast of the generated images. The dark state of the display is a prerequisite for a high image contrast. Optically isotropic state was observed in bent core nematic mixtures containing rod like molecules induced by l...
