Computer simulation study of ferroelectric liquid crystal phases
Molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo simulations are used to study ferroelectric liquid crystals. The effect of molecular shape on the stability and nature of ferroelectric phases is examined. The effect of molecular flatness on the stability of uniaxial nematic liquid crystal phases is studied. M...
