Novel liquid crystal terphenyls with two, three and four lateral fluoro substituents and an alkene unit at the end of a terminal chain are presented in terms of synthesis, mesomorphic behaviour and electro-optic properties. The difluoro analogues wer... Read More about The influence of an alkenyl terminal group on the mesomorphic behavior and electro-optic properties of fluorinated terphenyl liquid crystals.
