Journal Article
Burnell, E. E., Dong, R. Y., Kohlmeier, A., Tamba, M. G., Welch, C., & Mehl, G. H. (2015). NMR study of a bimesogenic liquid crystal with two nematic phases. Molecular crystals and liquid crystals, 610(1), 100-107. https://doi.org/10.1080/15421406.2015.1025211

Recent interest in bimesogenic liquid crystals showing two nematic phases has led us to investigate the nematic mean-field interactions in these nematic phases by using rigid solutes as probes. The nematic potential that is modelled by two independen... Read More about NMR study of a bimesogenic liquid crystal with two nematic phases.

A fibre forming smectic twist-bent liquid crystalline phase (2015)
Journal Article
Tamba, M. G., Salili, S. M., Zhang, C., Jákli, A., Mehl, G. H., Stannarius, R., & Eremin, A. (2015). A fibre forming smectic twist-bent liquid crystalline phase. RSC advances, 5(15), 11207-11211. https://doi.org/10.1039/c4ra14669g

We demonstrate the nanostructure and filament formation of a novel liquid crystal phase of a dimeric mesogen below the twist–bend nematic phase. The new fibre-forming phase is distinguished by a short-correlated smectic order combined with an additio... Read More about A fibre forming smectic twist-bent liquid crystalline phase.
