Electrically Tunable Heliconical Smectic Superstructure in Polar Fluids
arXiv:2512.05517v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The ferroelectric nematic (NF) phase and related polar liquid-crystalline phases form a new class of strongly polarized yet fluid soft matter. Well-recognized heliconical ferroelectric phases such as NTBF and SmC_P^H exist, but their electro-optic functionality in smectic systems has been largely unexplored. Here, we report a newly designed single-component achiral molecule exhibiting a hierarchical polar phase sequence:...
