On the molecular origins of the ferroelectric splay nematic phase
R. J. Mandle, N. Sebastián, et al.
Discover the groundbreaking research by Richard J. Mandle and colleagues on the molecular mechanisms behind the formation of the ferroelectric splay nematic phase in liquid crystals. This study reveals how a small structural change in chemical compounds can lead to significant impacts on molecular packing and polar order, paving the way for innovative material design using molecular dynamics simulations.
