New evidence for a liquid?liquid transition in a one-component liquid

TL;DR: Based on specific heat, x-ray diffraction and nonlinear dielectric effect (NDE) measurements, the evidence for a liquid-liquid (L-L) transition in trans-1,2-dichloroethylene at TL−L≈Tm+23.6 K≈247 K is shown as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Solid–fluid phase transitions under extreme pressures including negative ones

TL;DR: In this paper, a comparison of various stability limits of pure and ordered one-component stretched solids is presented, with a special focus on auxetic materials, where negative-pressure states can be reached easily during uni-axial stretch.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pretransitional behavior in the isotropic phase of a nematic liquid crystal with the transverse permanent dipole moment

TL;DR: The results presented give the evidence for the quasicritical, pretransitional behavior of dielectric properties in the isotropic phase of a rodlike nematic liquid crystal with the transverse permanent dipole moment.
Journal ArticleDOI

The nonlinear dielectric effect in critical solutions with different types of background effects

TL;DR: In this paper, the nonlinear dielectric effect (NDE) was investigated in critical solutions of nitrobenzene-heptane and veratrole-hepton.
