A thermotropic biaxial nematic liquid crystal

TL;DR: In this paper, optical studies have been carried out on a nematogenic copper complex, which incorporates the features of both rod-like and disk-like molecules, and conoscopic figures have been presented demonstrating the occurrence of a biaxial nematic phase in the pure complex, the uniaXial-biaxial (Na-Nb) transition in binary mixtures, and the temperature variation of the biaaxiality near this transition.
