TL;DR: In this article, the de Gennes free energy of the twist-grain boundary (TGB) state was used to calculate the x-ray scattering intensities in the cholesteric phase near the TGB phase boundary.
Journal ArticleDOI
Twist-grain-boundary phases near the nematic-smectic-A-smectic-C point in liquid crystals
Tom C. Lubensky,S. R. Renn +1 more
TL;DR: The Chen-Lubensky model for the point where the nematic, smectic-A, and smectIC-C liquid-crystalline phases meet (the NAC point) is generalized to include the effects of molecular chirality to find that the NAC multicritical point becomes a critical end point.
