Field-induced Optically Isotropic State in Bent Core Nematic Liquid Crystals: Unambiguous Proof of Field-induced Optical Biaxiality
The behaviour of bent core (BC) nematic liquid crystals was investigated under dc applied electric field. The optically isotropic state of a sample containing BC nematic was observed under application of low dc electric fields. The quality of the dark state when the sample was inserted between tw...
