Asymmetry chiral nematics

The cholesteric or chiral nematic phase may be considered as a perturbed planar nematic phase in which the director in each plane is slightly rotated with respect to that of an adjacent plane. Asymmetry in the chemical structure causes this rotation which results in the director tracing out a left- or right-handed helix. When such helix pitch... [Pg.299]
