The first liquid crystalline dimers consisting of two banana-shaped mesogenic units: a new way for switching between ferroelectricity and antiferroelectricity with bent-core molecules

Abstract

Depending on the number of dimethylsiloxane units in the spacer connecting two banana-shaped molecules either ferroelectric or antiferroelectric switchable polar smectic C phases have been obtained.
