Journal ArticleDOI
Role of end chains in the reentrant behavior of a nonpolar system.
TL;DR: These theories essentially show that the high-temperature smectic phase is an induced phase and the reentrant nematic phase is brought about by a competition between two incommensurate lengths.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Molecular Mean Field Model for a Rectangular to Hexagonal Phase Transitionin Discotic Liquid Crystals
TL;DR: In this article, a mean field model for a rectangular columnar to hexagonal columnar phase transition, assuming that the molecules are biaxial in both the phases, is presented, taking the molecular cores to be tilted in a particular direction with respect to the column axis by the same angle at each lattice site.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phase diagram for discotic liquid crystals
TL;DR: In this paper, the variational method of Lee et al. was extended to the discotic phase diagram of rod-like molecules, and the N-I transition temperature (T N-1) varies inversely as the square of the molecular diameter.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Mean Field Model for Reentrant Polymorphism
TL;DR: In this article, an alternative mechanism for space filling is proposed which can account for SAd-Nre transition with an accompanying increase of layer thickness, which can lead to the SAdnre transition at constant layer thickness.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Molecular Meanfield Model for the Biaxial Rectangular Discotic Phase with Herring-Bone Packing of Tilted Molecules
TL;DR: In this article, a molecular mean field model for a rectangular columnar to hexagonal columnar phase transition is presented, assuming the molecules basically to be biaxial objects.
