Nano-colloids of Sn2P2S6 in Nematic Liquid Crystal Pentyl-cianobiphenile

It has been shown experimentally that the ferroelectric nano-particles, in common with other molecular additives, shift the clearing temperature, Tc, extending or reducing the two-phase coexistent region and changing the average order parameter of the single-component nematics. An increase of up to...
