Electroclinic effect in a chiral carbosilane-terminated 5-phenylpyrimidine liquid crystal with ‘de Vries-like’ properties
The chiral carbosilane-terminated liquid crystal 2-[(2S,3S)-2,3-difluorohexyloxy]-5-[4-(12,12,14,14,16,16-hexamethyl-12,14,16-trisilaheptadecyloxy)phenyl]pyrimidine (QL32-6) undergoes a smectic A*-smectic C* phase transition with a maximum layer contraction of only 0.2%.
